Wednesdays

I love Wednesdays... for a few reasons.

1) It's just me & the boys. Most weeks on Wednesday, we don't go anywhere. Most weeks on Wednesday, we don't get out of our jammies. We lounge, watch movies, snuggle, play. We do art projects, sometimes we bake, and we always have tons of fun.

2) It's my 'night off'. When Jon gets home from his internship at 5(ish), I leave. I do whatever I want, alone, for however long. Usually it's only about four hours, because as of late, I turn into a pumpkin after 9pm.

3) SAMmy's! SAMmy's = Strength Among Moms Ministry 6:30-8pm
I am blessed to be a part of this group on Wednesday nights. Moms (all ages, all stages of life) come together to walk alongside one another as we grow in our relationships with God. B-l-e-s-s-i-n-g. Totally.

It's fall! On this Wednesday, October 10th, 2012, I am feeling really blessed. Today, I have marveled at the blue sky, opened the windows and breathed in the fresh air, smiled at the pumpkins gracing each room in our house, ate some homemade pumpkin cranberry bread with some homemade pumpkin spice latte (recipe here: http://www.thekitchn.com/diy-pumpkin-spice-latte-96277. *I omit the vanilla.*) Noah danced around, strumming his out-of-tune guitar. Dawson climbed on things and made mess after mess. While Dawson napped, I did an art project with Noah. Tonight, I'm meeting a friend for coffee and then heading to SAMmy's. I might even go to Target afterwards. (That's what living on the edge looks like, incase you didn't know.) I thank God for all these blessings surrounding me.

Life is good.
