We have each other

I have a husband who likes to remind me that I am CrAzY. I am crazy, true to his word. I am ever so happy that he enables my craziness. Today, he helped me to frantically clean our home. I was crazy, or most would call it feeling fed up with living like pigs. Here it is 11:50 pm and we are just about to sit down to enjoy a little bit more of us time. I am blessed to share my life with a man that will help me to frantically clean our home on a Friday evening.

Yesterday I was

so very happy that everything fell into a place where I was forced to see that it was time for me to share some of the Halloween festivity preparations with those who the festivities are for. My Supergirl, red power ranger, and pirate helped each other frost and decorate all of the Ghost Cupcakes sans mom. Supergirl made many PB & J sandwiches for the Power Ranger and Pirate to cut out with Halloween shaped cookie cutters. All mom had to do was bag the treaty treats for our fun later in the day. I feel so very blessed that the days stresses led me to a place of realizing my children's capabilities are more than I sometimes give them credit for.

And here we go

on a journey of what is and is not important.
Today, I am grateful that my lil' pumpkin crawls, stands, and eats ALOT!!! She gets gooey and dirty, she dives into her world feeling it with all 5 senses. It really is a wonderful thing to see.
I have learned so much from each of my children. And today I put into action my knowing that it is okay for Zari to crawl around on the floor of a coffee shop. She had an ever so fun time hanging on the floor with a cup, a banana, and my cell phone. When she wanted up, she hung on my lap and when she wanted down, she cruised the dirty floor of Starbucks. Whew, you might think, I even thought it. But, really my living room floor most likely holds more dirt on it than the floor she explored tonight. I had a nice chat with a most wonderful friend and Zari had a most wonderful time getting know her world a little bit better.
