I have a wonderful life. I could complain about a few things but for the most part I am so lucky. As I put our house back together as I often do on Mondays, I realized that this is just what I should be doing. I don't enjoy cleaning up but I enjoy the peace that comes from it. I know that things flow smoother when the dishes are done and the laundry is put away.
I often think how nice it would be to lunch with my lady friends in Anthropology dresses and fantastic red soled shoes at amazing restaurants. I think that life would get old quickly. I am more of a homebody with each passing day. I get out for my children's activities but pass on the grown-up ones more and more. I may not live a glamorous life but I live a fulfilling one. I can go to sleep at night knowing that I am loved and I have people to love.
So many people have so much more than I do but way more have less. I am a lucky girl. I thank God everyday for my life.
