Blessed

I had to take a moment from washing dishes tonight to share how blessed I am feeling. Today has been one of those days with the kids that makes memories (good ones). Aaron came home feeling productive and happy with the day, and we had a great supper together as a family. I know that I need to remember all the blessings God has given me on bad days as well, but today it has hit me hard. I was washing the dishes and Aaron was on the floor in the living room with the kids. All I could hear was laughter from all 3 of them and the song Blessed from Martina McBride came to me. It is a good song, and so true. Thank you God!

Here are the lyrics to the first part of the song.

I get kissed by the sun each morning
Put my feet on a hardwood floor
I get to hear my children laughing
Down the hall through the bedroom door
Sometimes I sit on my front porch swing
Just soaking up the day
I think to myself, I think to myself
This world is a beautiful place
I have been blessed
And I feel like I've found my way
I thank God for all I've been given
At the end of every day
I have been blessed
With so much more than I deserve
To be here with the ones that love me
To love them so much it hurts
I have been blessed

Look at me

Luke is finally sitting on his own. Sometimes not so well if his pants are too tight, or if he is wearing something bulky like a skunk costume, but overall he is doing very well, and is quite proud of himself it seems.

Halloween

Last night we went out trick or treating in our neighbourhood to a few houses and then finished off at home watching Charlotte's Web. As you can see Katie was a little clown and Luke was a little stinker (how appropriate for both)!
