People who know you, help you, laugh with you, who are effortless to be around. Happiness. Family. Love.
Surrounded by friends and family. What could be better? Grateful for happy days. Smiles and fun. Without worries and filled with good times. I’ll gladly take it.

A house full of family. Overflowing. Busting at the seams. Squeezing to find space. Always making space.
Sharing. Laughing. Smiling. Helping. Hugging.
Wonderful. Chaotic. Full of love. A safe haven. Comforting.
Funny how busy and bundled can be so fantastic.

Ever heard that saying, ‘when life hands you lemons, make lemonade?" I couldn’t help but to think of that and smile rather than focus on the negative in this situation.
In the middle of our home renovation, a previously undiscovered old septic tank revealed itself… in the form of a gigantic hole in what was once my beautifully manicured, lush grass.
Nothing to do, we broke up the concrete and filled in the hole with dirt. I’ll have to wait to seed or sod the space… until the renovation is finished or until the fall when the best time to grow grass may be.
And so, now my front yard consists of a filled in dirt hole. The kids and I went out to play in the yard as we do on many hot summer days. Instead of being able to run and play in the grass… we had mud. Lots of mud.
And that’s when that whole, ‘lemon to lemonade’ quote came to mind. And so, when life hands you dirt, …. throw some water on it and play in the mud!
Good Times.

Six years ago today, I was due to have my first baby. Though it took her a few more days to arrive, today marks the day when my world began to change.
The memories of those days still make me smile. My world was about to change. I’m so glad it did.

Today I’m grateful that my biggest problem is an irritating plumber. Really. That’s a fantastic ‘big problem’ to have.
