Today is a special day. It has started with coffee and quilts. I wish everyday started like this. Since the family thanksgiving dinner was last night and my girls got properly spoiled, they are sleeping in this morning and I am enjoying the rare quiet. Yesterday I worked hard to get my huge list of house stuff done. I actually did it! I completed the list....well I skipped cleaning the fridge. It can wait til I get back. Gary and I are going away today for our first over night without the kids. We are going to Gananoque Inn and starting our mini vacation with a 1000 island boat cruise. My parents are coming this morning to stay over night with the kids. I am not jealous of them. My huge heavy girls can be unhappy when mommy is not here. They do love there nanny and poppa though......maybe things will be fine.
I have so much to be thanksful for. I love my sewing room, I love that the laundry is done. I love that I can create and have balance in my life between 'me time' and being mom...if I work hard at it. I love that my husband and I still both make an effort in our relationship. I love that I can hear him starting the 4-wheeler to go put the cows out to field because the milking is done. I am thankful for my old complicated moody house that takes a lot of work. I love the fall morning smell of leaves, fresh cold air and farm. This is the day that the Lord has made. Let us rejoice and be glad in it.
