It's been a week already? You've GOT to be kidding me!
It's been a pretty good week. I've had a ton of things to do, which is always better than having absolutely nothing to do. My husband has been in and out and is IN this weekend and it's the first weekend since June that he has been here for a family weekend in it's entirety. He was supposed to be out AGAIN but it got cancelled! Hooray for US! It feels normal and awesome and I am still coming down from the intensity of this stressful summer of moving and settling and construction and a month long trek of being without him here. I am sure it might sound weird, but having him home is an adjustment for us all. But we LOVE it. Of course.
Gearing up for having company and for Baby Girl's FIRST BIRTHDAY! Already!? And SCHOOL!
Loads of projects in the works and the change of seasons feels fantastic. Even if the weather isn't quite as cool as I like just yet, the anticipation of it is just enough for now to invigorate and keep me motivated... and I'm sure you can tell that I'm practically thrumming and vibrating from two very large cups of coffee this morning and I am thinking of making more for a chilled ice beverage later... yes, I just might do that.
Have found time to knit and cook and read and play with the kids and it's been lovely. These things truly feed the soul. I have to say, it feels so good to write a happy post, full of peace (even though things aren't always peaceful) and to not feel like I am bellyaching about my woes of parenthood. Oh boy, do I have some, but today, they are easy to ignore. Sometimes just having the extra adult presence within our home, the Daddy's Home vibe, just somehow changes everything.
I hope everyone has these beautiful calm eyes of a day in the hurricane that can sometimes be our lives. It's a breathe of life. Really.
