just me today

This picture is what I look like everyday. (minus the shower & makeup- ha!) I'm ok with this...in fact, I'm more than ok with this. My kids and I have the privilege of spending every single day together. And with Shane being gone these few weeks...all night too. I absolutely love being at home and watching them grow into little people full of life. I feel like this year we are really getting to know each other inside and out and I know that's what God had in store for our family. I'm trying to enjoy every second because I know it's back to the grind next year in the classroom.

This morning I don't look like this photo. I'm just me and it feels really good too. I went to the grocery store alone....and will admit that I shed a few tears in the baby food aisle when I realized I don't have to go down that aisle anymore. I think just being alone and really thinking about making healthier choices for dinner was the best part. Instead of shoving cookies down their throat and lord knows what else JUST to keep them quiet.... But, bringing them is quite fun too. More people stop and talk when there are two cuties waving. This morning has been great and has made me appreciate a quiet house and a list that's being checked off for once!

Better run and enjoy just being Me.
