After a couple of blah weeks, I am ready to focus on all the things that have made me happy.
Because I am surrounded by so many wonderful things.
My friends are super heroes. Who work quietly and without much fame.
I found out that they are the "anything anytime anyplace" kind of people.
Phones are still the best invention. I like to talk.
I got a great massage and facial!
I love pink roses. Especially when they are a fresh from my neighbors bush.
2 bags of chocolate raisins + BBC movies = the perfect day. Or 3 days for that matter.
Reading is such a guilty pleasure!
Ordering pizza is the best! Especially when a secret someone has it delivered to your house.
My mom! She dropped everything and came to town to worked her magic. She is such an amazing mom who shows her love a thousand different ways. A week of no cooking, no cleaning, no laundry, and no parenting (plus mandatory quiet time for me) really is medicine for the soul.
Planting trees. We planted another tree this week to cheer us up. I smile every time I see its crooked little top out my window. I love our house, and love Houston, and am happy that we are putting down a few more roots for the time being.
I love that we are close to the beach: the air, the wind, the sound of waves, the sunshine!! My mom and I used our most logical thinking and concluded that there will definitely be beaches in heaven. Beaches with no seaweed and no jelly fish that is. (Because really, where will all the whales, fish, and dolphins live?)
I have a wonderful husband. He is handsome and hard working and smart.
And 2 of the worlds best, happiest, handsomest, little boys that bring me so much joy! Pure JOY pictured below:
Life is so good. In the end, it is good to have some lows to appreciate the many wonderful highs.

Sounds like a wonderful week that came right when you needed it most!
So.. wait. are you going on a cruise?! It seioulsy does work to get back into being the mom mode. But I am not so good at it all the time for my little one so, thats just me speaking.
And I agree, there better be oceans in heaven
