Today...
In this moment...
THIS IS ONE HAPPY MAMA because...
Well, honestly, there are lots of reasons. Maybe one reason could be because my kids come up with absurd Halloween characters/costumes they want to be that happen to be super cheap. So lucky my kids have never set their hearts on a $50 costume. That would never happen.
Or maybe it's because my kids have such good friends...I have such good friends, which is kind of a big deal when you aren't a socialite or way into lots and lots of get-togethers, but it is priceless to me to have dependable people, people who care, people who get me and whose houses I feel comfortable letting my kids go to anytime and vice-versa. Knowing your kids are happy, safe and valued even when they aren't with you is invaluable as well.
But tonight, the reason I am so happy is because all 7 of us are under one roof (the hubs and kids would make me say 9 because of the blasted cat and dog), all together, after a crazy couple of weeks...that will probably last at least a few more days before we can breathe, but I feel full of love and joy right this moment - love my husband, love my children, love the season, the neighbors, and I am so thankful for my Father in Heaven and His Son, Jesus Christ. They can carry me through anything!
