Hey y'all! It's Tuesday, and if you ask me, Tuesday is the worst day of the week! Monday gets the bad rap, but at least on Monday the weekend is still fresh in your mind and you have something to share and talk about with others. On Tuesday, everything is old news, it's still way too far away from the weekend, and in the fall/winter, their is definitely no Tuesday night football! So Tuesdays are lame (I'm sure you will agree) ;)
On today's agenda: OUTSIDE ALL DAY! The weather channel is predicting a high of 85 degrees!! It seems that old man winter has finally got the hint that he has worn out his welcome and spring is finally here! So I plan on getting a winter's worth of leaves and pinecones raked up out of the yard while the youngins' play. I babysit an almost 2 year old little girl, and this will be a great way for her and my son to get good and tired for a nice long nap later today. They're the cutest kids, and so good, and it has been great for Logan to be around another baby all day.
On another note, 1 year ago tonight, my husband (and one of our closest friends Matt) returned home from Afghanistan and finally got to meet our then 3 month old baby boy! That night will always be one of the best nights of my life. My husband had been safely returned home from war twice, and my new little family was finally complete. I had never felt so blessed by God as I did that night. It was such a wonderful thing to watch them get to know each other, and to see the instant love my husband had for our son. I had a few amazing friends by my side, as they always have been while we waited around in the gym on base and then out in the cold for hours! Finally, around 2 am, the buses pulled in and my whole world was complete. I know that not every military family gets to experience that same outcome, so I am taking a lot of extra time today to thank the Good Lord for all he has blessed me with. I am so thankful to have these moments caught on tape to share with our son someday.
