In a good place

It's been a long week. Enjoyable, but long. Nate was out of town for work, so I was on my own with my little birds. It's not like he's home a lot, but just knowing that adult conversation isn't far away is always nice. So, I kept myself busy all week so I wouldn't go too nutty in his absence. (Don't tell him how lost I was without him, that'll be our little secret)


Today's post is just a reflection of how happy I am in this life, and how I feel like I am in the place I'm supposed to be in. People always ask me if I am going to go back to work as a nurse. My answer (for now) is this, I can't think of any other place I'd rather be than with my kids. This job is the most important job I could ever have. Sometimes I feel like I'm failing miserably, but the rewards far outweigh any discouragement I ever feel. 


Tonight, we went to meet Nate, he was running a little behind. Lucky for us, I happened to have my camera in the car! 


Talk about being in a good place... 

























































Some of the best moments happen when you aren't looking for them, but if you're ready, you can catch them. 


Cheers!

This one's for you, Daddy!

I know, I know, It's been awhile. What can I say, things have been busy... ya, ya, ya I say that every post. But seriously, my little Sister got married, we hosted a party at our home, had a family reunion, and Nate and I celebrated our wedding anniversary. All this was added in to the daily mix of Nate working 80-120 hours per week, softball games, and the all important "keeping the kids entertained so I'm the coolest mom ever job". Yep, that's right, they think so, and I won't argue with that. 


So anyway. This post will be quick because I'm getting ready to run out the door to Isabelle's softball game, but someone very special is missing his 3 little girls, so this post is for him. 


I got a little crafty and made this fun chalk board. I was so excited to use it, I thought I'd test it out on my favorite little faces. Surprisingly, they were all compliant when I told them that it was a special project for daddy!


So here it is.. This one's for you, Daddy!
