For Today



My good friend Heidi, a Slightly Cosmopolitan type of gal had this inspirational BLOG post up today and it made me want to share the same here ...

Outside my window… a rising sun meets the wet dew from a chilly, fall night.

I am thinking… how nice it is to have a few sleeping babies tucked into their warm beds.

I am thankful for… warm, toasty, soft socks and coffee.

From the kitchen… leftover broccoli-chicken, but alas no crab Rangoon.

I am wearing… my favorite pair of jammies, messy ponytail and glasses.

I am creating… a happy home, dreams and memories and in the very literal sense, a halloween project and Tuck's costume.

I am going… to get another cup o java, be right back.

I am reading… The Hour I First Believed by Wally Lamb and Harry Potter with the boys.

I am hoping… to take the babies for hair cuts today and to get some sewing done. I am also hoping that Silas and Archie have fun on their camping trip today.

I am hearing… the wee patter of feet fresh from a good sleep and the sweetest sound I know, "momma!"

Around the house… there are small people doing little people things. A 1 year old standing in a drawer to reach a pretzel on the counter. A 2 year old still snuggled in bed. A 6 year old making his own breakfast and his little brother's breakfast. I wonder if he realizes that Tucker doesn't like Lucky Charms?

One of my favorite things… a fantastic fabric find!

A few plans for the rest of the week… a college test, field day, picture day, boy scouts, administrative council meeting, bake sale and the state fair.

A picture to share… Race Day!

Love the cute photo... It made me giggle with the regular bike racing the sports bike!

Love this one! How is The Hour I First Believed? I've read the other two from him and loved them.

It is different ... touches on a lot of controversial topics.
