Such a peaceful, relaxing weekend.... maybe all of the laundry isn't folded, maybe the floors aren't spotless, but I've spent time with my family, my church family, and a good friend. I consider that a success! I love when Mondays roll around so I can list more things I am thankful for....
531. my sweet daughter reading her favorite Magic Treehouse books to her brother
532. Dollar stores!
533. our homeschool co-ops, and all of the friendships I am making with other like-minded moms
534. Chocolate Trinity Ice Cream, and secret texts sent over dinner with my husband planning to buy the ice cream so the kids wouldn't know!
535. our children's love affair with books.... it has been ongoing since they were babies!
