3BT: Everyone’s Home

rosesIt’s been a beautiful Sunday, the end of a perfect weekend. What a wonderful time to post Three Beautiful Things:

1. Ward’s home, back from his karate seminar in New York. He was away for four days, and we missed him a lot! It’s great to have him home tonight – he’s behind me right now, sitting at his computer catching up on episodes of the Japanese shows he’s missed while he was away. (No, he’s not Japanese. But he loves the Japanese shows that my daughter Hayley introduced him to – they have subtitles!)

2. The kids are home. My two oldest kids spent the weekend at their dad’s this weekend – they go every other weekend – and as always, the house feels so much brighter on those Sunday nights when I hear them come through the front door, chattering with each other and then racing into the office to see us.

3. My mom is upstairs, sleeping in Dylan’s room. I know I’m a grown-up now, with kids of my own (two teenagers, even!), but whenever she comes and stays over, I always feel so good. It’s like slipping back into childhood for a day or so.

I'd love to hear from you: Click here to add your thoughts!

    I agree. I always sleep so well when I have a sleepover at my Mum’s house.

    Thanks for joining in Blogtoberfest.
