this weekend had several moments i wanted to "freeze-frame", those conscious pauses where you take stock, breathe in the sight before you and wish to capture it in the "forever" spot of your brain while life all around whizzes right on by. here's one of those such moments i'm super thankful for. all of our kids home under one roof again. more shoes, more laundry, more noise, more dishes, more wet towels, more cheese consumption, more fun. simple as that. a big family isn't all hard, and sometimes i feel i need to defend it to others (and to myself on occasions, if i'm honest!) and there are these times where six is a fantastic number all around.
like during a good old fashioned game of spoons! with water chugging or hot sauce drops for the loser as an added twist of crazy because, you know, the game of spoons wasn't exciting enough on its own...
happy season of gratitude! such a great time of year!
