FOR TODAY

Outside my window...It is absolutely beautiful today! The sky is full of fluffy white clouds, temps are in the mid 70s. It's perfect spring weather!

I am thinking...of the beautiful prayer (The Energies of the Spirit of God by Joyce Rupp) our deacon shared in his homily during yesterday's Pentecost Mass.

I am thankful...for a safe, enjoyable trip to northern Ohio to visit Casinodad's dad & aunt. We ate at a great Chinese buffet (or I should say "over-ate!"), took the munchkins to a park, & I even had a chance to stop in a Goodwill store near their house & found a couple of great tops for my trip to California.

From the learning rooms...pretty much done for the summer! We'll take a break for a few weeks then catch up on a couple lessons we never got to & do some other fun things.

From the kitchen...chicken nuggets & fries for dinner - yep, very healthy I know!

I am wearing...denim capris, a coral cotton top, & barefeet

I am creating...still working out the kinks to the fun beach party for the munchkins at some point this month

I am going...to California for my cousin's wedding!

I am reading...Hungry Souls by Gerard J.M. Van Den Aardweg, Wholly Mary by Chris Padgett (my newest review for The Catholic Company), & The Imitation of Christ.

I am hoping...for a safe, enjoyable trip

I am hearing...The Saint's Sesame Street stethoscope (Cookie Monster tells you all about your heart!), birds chirping, & the munchkins playing outside w/ their friends

Around the house...working on laundry & getting the house straightened up before I leave

One of my favorite things...unexpected hugs & kisses from the munchkins

A few plans for the rest of the week..."Mom Therapy" tomorrow, orthodontist appt. tomorrow morning for The Prophet, packing for a girls' trip to San Diego w/ The Princess & HelpfulGrammy for my cousin's wedding (The Princess has been so excited for months...her first flight & a trip to the beach!)

Here is picture for thought I am sharing...Big sister's lap is very comfortable, but I'm not too sure about being folded in half!
