1. When the sun shines. In the last month or so, sunlight has been a rarity. When it does shine, the kids and I do a happy sun dance of sorts. :)
2. Brogan telling Addi to "calm down." ;) It is so cute. However, these days, he needs to calm down more times a day than she does. He is two. He is really good at being two right now.
3. Christmas in July movies on Hallmark channel. Need I say more? :)
4. Sneaking healthy ingredients into dinner without Jared or the kiddos knowing. They will all eat their vegetables (Brogan is WAY better at this than Jared and Addi), but I am having a blast adding extra nutritious ingredients to some of our favorites. Makes my heart happy to watch them gobble up the food, too. :)
5. My husband's ability to drive under pressure. Since it has been raining a lot, I have been even bossier when it comes to telling him how to drive. He takes it with a grain of salt and is still able to focus on driving. Usually he is very gracious about my "suggestions" though he has started to say, "Thanks, Coach" when I offer some advice. I don't think that's a compliment. ;)
6. Cow Appreciation Day at Chick-Fil-A. All of us dressed like cows (used materials we had on hand and got about $20.00 of free food...score!). Addi thought it was wonderful to dress up. Brogan was really excited about eating. ;) I got teary-eyed while eating our dinner. I looked around at other families in their cow costumes, my babies sweet faces and my husband (who was an awesome sport) and it hit me once again how blessed I am to have such an amazing family. Silly that I cried? Maybe, but anyone who has longed to be a mother and thought at one point that it might not happen, will totally understand.
Have a blessed week!
