I AM SO GRATEFUL for father's. My sweet hubby is such a good father to our children and I love that he always tries hard to be the best person he can be. Just like my father did when I was little, my sweet hubby always makes time to play with our kiddos. Right now he is in another state finishing up his work duties so we'll celebrate Father's Day this weekend. The kids each made something special and are so excited to show him when he finally gets here. -for clean water. The sewer pipe in this old house started leaking on Friday and I just wanted to cry. I called roto-rooter and they were able to fix it. Tree roots had grown into the pipe and were making the water back up from the septic tank. I am thankful that I can now take a shower, run my dishwasher, and washing machine without a hitch-not to mention flush the toilets. Generally all those things shouldn't run through the septic tank-so when we do a much needed overhaul on this house we will definitely fix that! -please see the link from a friend of ours-.
-to sleep on my own bed. What a comfort it is to relax and let out the days tension on your own mattress.
-for cleaning supplies! Okay, I have to say that the people we bought this house from are Schweine. If there is a better word, I can't think of it now. You never know who people really are until you have to clean up after them. Yuck-I don't even want to think of what I've just had to clean.
-for good music. My parents had a major impact on the types of music I like. Mainly classical. I love music that is uplifting, peaceful, and magical. Right now I'm listening to Itzhak Perlman playing the violin on the Hero soundtrack -For the World. It's beautiful and he is one person that I would love to hear play in person.
-for our good friends that we leave behind each time we move. I truly mean it when I say you are welcome in our home anytime-even if we haven't seen or heard from you in a number of years! Just remember that our guest book is waiting for you to sign-in.
-for my computer and the internet. It's so nice to be able to blog again and see how each of you are doing!

Aww, I MISS YOU MIRIAM! EVERYtime we go to workout Mark asks if HIS Noah is going to be there! He was sick that last couple of weekends y'all were here and missed out on nursery with him. So trying to explain that y'all had moved was hard. Just not a concept that he understands yet. Anyhow, I AM glad that you are settling in and hope that you guys can put down some roots and establish yourselves. I think about you often!
Ha Ha,
I just had to laugh about the schweine comment. What struck me really funny was the link to the pigs.
I feel the same every time I have to clean one of our rental properties. (The good tenants clean up after themselves before leaving -- they want their deposit back.) I'll never pretend to be the cleanest person in the world...but I think we at least qualify as sanitary! Some of these others though...watch out!
