I'm really enjoying the sunshine lately.
The kids took a fabulous morning nap. So fabulous in fact, I was able to read every section in the paper. Not just my normal, flip to the comics section. That is usually the first priority when I have
limited paper-reading time. How about those 100mph winds yesterday, huh? Whew nelly! (That's the kind of thing us paper-readers say.)
I just made hummus. With lots of garlic. It just might be gone before lunch is over.
I went running in the 25 degree weather this morning with a friend. She happens to be in the middle of her first chemo treatment. Chemo be danged. She wanted to run, so I happily and eagerly came along.
I just read this post, which tipped my already sparked Christmas spirit into a burn. I really do love celebrating the birth of the Savior. I hope I can relay that my little munchkins, who happen to be up from their nap now. They are saying "Hi!" to each other from across the room.
There aren't many things I love more than hearing them talk to each other in a happy, 'hey, you're still here too, I really like you,' kind of way.
They make me happy. So does the sunshine, a fresh morning paper, hummus, running, and Christmas.
But those three? They make me ridiculously happy.
Cheers to a great Friday!

i can't believe you have a label for 'i love garlic.'

go ahead on the hummus. don't feel bad if you don't save me any.
I'm so grateful for optimistic people. You make me happy:)
Thank you for sharing, you reminded me of 25ish years ago when the house was full of children and the spirit of Christmas was thick and rich. We filled a manger full of kindness and sang "Happy Birthday" to Jesus. No matter what my personal demons dish out, I will always cherish the years I was a "mother to many." You children have been my greatest gift, and you keep on giving with your precious children. God bless us everyone!
