Nothing Special

Nothing really happened. We didn't do anything big, none of the kids reached any new milestones (although The Bean has definitely perfected the art of saying "Dada" and meaning it), and I can't exactly pinpoint anything that was especially fabulous-still, we had a really good day. The kids were so great today-funny, loving, laughing, playing nicely-and I got to share that with my parents who stopped by for a visit.

Not every day is this good, and sometimes it is so easy for me to get overwhelmed in the amount of work that three small kids require that I forget how wonderful they really are. I'm glad days like this come around to remind me. I always love my family, but today Hubby and the kidlets and I just felt really close. Today was filled with hugs and snuggles, tickles and toys, laughs and a whole lot of love-even if "nothing" happened, it's been a very nice reminder of why I love being a mommy.

I hope you all had a good day.

I LOVE days like that! Where everything just seems to go right and everyone is happy and all it takes to keep the peace is to be together. Sounds wonderful!

I love a nice "boring" day now and then.

Glad it was a good day.
