The First Day Back!

Today was our first day back to works and school.  

Well, for almost all of us.  

Scott had one last day off and needed it to recuperate.  

We all seem to love structure and thrive when we have 

somewhere to be and something to accomplish.  

Don't get me wrong.  

We love our down time, and we love being together, 

but the lack of accomplishment makes us restless and a smidge irritable :)

One thing I LOVE about our routine, is bedtime!  We gather for

family prayer, then take time with Zach and Addie to get in PJ's, 

brush teeth and say prayers.  

We are able to read, talk, or just snuggle!

That time of day reminds

me of why I'm a mom and why everything I do is for them.  

I LOVE being a mom!  It's worth every inconvenience and is truly divine in mission.

I suppose it's the sense of accomplishment, in an eternal sense, 

that makes me love it so much!
