Savoring the Day

I tend to be a little high strung (those of you laughing and saying, "ha, a little" can stop now). Believe me, after 39 years, I know this about myself. It's something I try to keep in check every single day. Some days are better than others. But pretty much every day I feel sad that H & C are growing up so fast, and I can't be around more for them. Ironically, my worrying about this often gets in the way of actually enjoying the time I have with them. But not tonight. Tonight, I took my time making dinner. I played some music while we ate. I cleaned up while dancing around the kitchen. C asked me to marry him and I almost said yes ... until H reminded me that I already have a husband. We had fun. Look how lucky I am.
