This Life

I'm so grateful so be able to spend day in and day out with my kids. Some days it wears me out to no end. However, I absolutely love being able to be at home with my babies, while still making some bucks. 

So here I sit, in my kitchen, drinking a home-made cappuccino, listening to Bruno Mars via iTunes and Skull Candy, with the babies happily playing while watching Gnomeo and Juliet (great movie, by the way), while getting ready to tackle some bank-statements...after I finish contemplating how immensely blessed I am. (Yes, I'm bragging.)

Some days, I can't believe how fortunate I am. 2 amazing babies, a wonderful husband, a cute little house in the mountains filled with everything we could ever need. 

And this husband of mind is such a blessing to me. Not only does he shower me with never-ending love, he also takes every chance he has to bless me in any way he can. We were driving home a couple weeks ago and he asked me what I wanted for my birthday (still several weeks away). I told him I hadn't really thought about it. He paused, then asked me if I'd like to go visit some friends who live in Florida. I had to replay it in my head a few times. Of course, I do! So in 15 days, I'll be on a plane to Sunny Florida for a much needed get away. See what I mean? I told him he's not allowed to get me anything for at least the next year. He laughed at me and walked away. That man! : )
