pondering

Sitting here this evening mindlessly surfing the internet. Getting caught up in the addictive world that is pinterest.

Just walked back from dinner at the church. Kids rode their bikes. Maya wore a fedora and a candy necklace. Not while she was riding her bike, she had a helmet on for that. I carried her fedora so she could be stylish when she got there. I left Michael there to help out with dishes and general tidying up because he's a rock star like that.

My Jersey Girls will be here in an hour or so for Jammie Movie Night. I should give the kitchen a 10 second tidy, let the kids make the punch and throw the cheese dip in the oven.

Instead I'm sitting here just thinking about how great my life is right now. How much I am loving everything that's coming my way. It's not perfect and it's not immune to "the sad", but I feel I'm surrounded by fantastic people. It hit me on the way home tonight, I feel this shift in my mindset to one where I'm just ready to say yes to lots of different things I previously would have maybe said no to and I'm glad to be here.

I am so happy for you! You have a pretty rocking life! I think most of us do but we just need to see it.
