Back Home

Me, today.  Home again and jumping back into the routine.

The Mister did a great job holding down the fort!  He even

did laundry (which is usually forbidden. ha.).  I got home

around 11:30 last night and the house was quiet and clean,

boys tucked into bed and the kitties laying around purring.

Home, sweet, home!

This morning, the boys peeked in our bedroom and when they

saw me sitting in bed drinking coffee, they were so cute!

Their eyes got big and they came over and initiated 

 giving me a kiss.  Aw.  So good for my heart!

I can ask for a kiss, but the rare times they

do it without prompting are just the best!

You know how I love clouds...had to take a few pictures 

from up in the sky!

This is my niece and her daughter who I went to visit.

Her husband is a musician and on tour in Europe and with

a second baby on the way, she needed someone there to help

out.  I was more than happy to go and we had so much fun!

We did some running around, ate out, shopped and even had

a therapeutic massage on our necks and backs, one at a time,

and we took turns holding that beautiful little one!

We stayed up late chatting....so good for both of us!

The boys' teacher sent me this photo of Spencer while I was

gone.  He was doing a craft on a field trip.  I love the light,

the softness and the look of concentration on his face!

And here is Alex today, all smiles when he came home to

find me still here! hahaha...he has serious anxiety

when I'm gone or even look like I might go somewhere,

(like fixing my hair or putting on shoes).  I guess he 

staged a hunger strike while I was gone until pizza

was served the third day and he couldn't resist. lol...

Well, I need to catch up with all of you!

Hope you had a great week.

I'll be around to say hello over the next day or two.

I have a studio full of etsy orders that I need to get

into the mail!  I've hit the ground running!

It's good to be home, but it was good to get away, too!
