This evening as I was cleaning up from dinner, I couldn't help but smile at all of the chaos in our living room. It was daddy wrestle time, sheer mayhem, and I wouldn't have it any other way!! I was over come with thanksgiving for God's goodness to us! I was grinning from the giggles, shrieks of delights, the requests to stop being tickled, even when they didn't really mean it! I was thankful for a daddy that adores his kiddos and will get down on the floor just to be jumped on by 3 very excited kids. {I personally don't like being pounced on} I was thankful for a hubby that is out of chronic pain- that can play with his kids again. In that moment I was surprised at how thankful I was for the trials of this last year... I may not have appreciated these things as much as I do now - if we hadn't been through so much this last year!
Bring on the chaos, the laughter, and the wild kiddos, we are busy making memories here!
