I like it when

• all of my *babies* are home for the night
• Sarah says to me "I need you"
• Doug is home on time for supper and has no plans to go out
• the house is quiet and peacefull
• the coffee is ready for me in the morning
• I clean the kitchen the night before
• the snow starts to melt and signs of spring are coming
• the only lights on are those that are sparkling from my Christmas tree
• my kids sleepily greet me in the morning all soft and warm
• I know what I'm having for supper early in the day
• I have time to myself in my huge bathtub
• people remember my birthday
• my kids are home from school
• we take family trips together
• friends pop in for coffee
• I get together with my sister
• my two year old sleeps in my arms
• the house is clean
• I hear my kids playing together happily
• I have a visit with my mother in law
• the furnace kicks in and I'm reminded of how blessed I am
• I get into my van which is in the garage
• I hear the older kids teaching the younger ones
• Arianna reads to me
• Andrea tells me how much she appreciates talking to me
• Joshua confides in me
• we have an entire day of no TV
• I remember to trust God and lean to Him
• He shows me I should have trusted in the first place
