Anyway, in case you didn't know, life is good. Yesterday was just so fabulous. I did my reading before anyone else woke up and the days are always better when I'm sure to fit that in. The day with the daycare kids went almost flawlessly. They were picked up by 4:15 so I was able to go for a run while it was SO beautiful outside. My boys rode in the stroller and had a little nap. Oh it was wonderful! I enjoy running so much! I prefer to go without the stroller, but to do that, I would have had to go to the Y and I wanted to be outside this time. I listened to this book on my iPod. Dr. Lund is fun to listen to and I'm learning lots about how to be a good communicator, especially in marriage.
I had (a yummy and healthy) dinner ready when we got back from the run and Devin came home a few minutes after that. We all ate together then did the boys' baths. We all read and played for a few minutes until the boys went to bed. Devin, Jaxon, and Henry sat on the couch as I read a little for Family Home Evening. I just felt so much joy for the blessings in my life, particularly my husband and sweet boys. All three were so cute. Jaxon as he half-way listened to what I was reading, Henry as he climbed up and down and over the couch with a big grin on his face the whole time, and Devin as he guided Jaxon to pay attention and caught Henry so he wouldn't fall. I constantly worry about bills and all the stresses of life, but in that moment, none of it mattered. There are times when I wish we had this or that, but at that moment, I had it all. I was there with them and everything else in the world was perfect.

We have that John Lund book on CD from a course he taught using the book. Excellent. We listen to it in the car on long road trips when the kids are all asleep.
Love LG too! We have the frontloader steam washer and we can do laundry from wash to dry in 1 hour. Saves tons of time and money since it has the ability to power itself.
Isn't it so fun to be in a house full of boys?! Your boys are so cute! And I just love running too!! being outside is the best, and my boys love it too. You have such a cute family!
I didn't know that's what LG stood for, but I love their brand in everything! That's good you had a great day! One reason I would love to live down there is because you CAN go for walks without 2 feet of snow around. I can't wait for summer!
You do daycare? My mom did that when we were younger. I admire you. Wow.
Love those days!! :)
