Ahhhh

It's amazing how little things make realize just how lucky you are.  I had one of those moments last night.  As my little boys and I were hanging out watching cartoons, while the hubs was out doing a community service project, the boys were fussing and fighting about who got to snuggle up to me.  That is a good problem, both my kids want to be with me.  My house is always in need of cleaning, this is a good thing because 1) I have a house 2) my family and I have "stuff" that we want and need. I had to do laundry and dishes after eating supper.  These are good things because we have clothes to wear, and food to eat.  We had a friend show up at our house late last night needing to talk.  This is where it hit me just how lucky I am.  The friend was coming to us to talk, not one of us needing to go talk to someone else about a problem we were having.  It also made me realize how lucky I am to have friends that know that my husband and I are there no matter what the situation.

I am a very lucky person.  I have two wonderul children, a husband that while he isn't perfect, he is perfect for me.  A roof over my head, food in my tummy, clothes on my back, and friends that are more like family than anything else. 

I often consider my life to be very mundane, and somewhat boring.  THANK GOODNESS it is.  I am happy with my simple kind of life.
