Sharing The Journey

Faith, Family, Friends

The past four days were great as dh was home the whole time! I wish he could work at home or retire or something!  Sometimes I cannot believe how blessed I am to have  married this incredible man. He is steady, wise, easy-going, funny and kind. And very understanding of my quirks. We saw a  picture once of a rock and a kite. The kite was laughing in the air and would have flown to who knows where but for the  rock which held the end of the string. We chuckled over that cartoon. Dh is my rock who keeps me steady, and  I'm his kite who  shakes up his world now and then. I guess we complement each other. :)
 
For the past 3-4 days now, we built a lovely fire at 5.30pm each evening. We would sip hot cocoa, nibble on ginger snaps and  enjoy the roar of the flames.  Last night we roasted marshmallows for the first time (!) and the children thought that was the coolest thing.  Sitting around the fire-place and listening to dh strum his banjo and watching the children play with the doll-house is one of my favorite things  these days.

Today I thank God for my family. There are so many things we can fuss about.  So many situations to worry over. But we have God. And when we have faith and family, we can smile and say, "Life is good." And add to that the wonderful friends God has brought into our lives, we can say, "Life is wonderful."

So to all my friends reading this, "Thank you for being my friend. God bless you and yours today!"
