As I sit and watch last night's "Big Love" for the third time (yes, I'm an addict), it occurs to me that this is the first completely normal day I've had in as long as I can remember. Months. That might sound crazy, but its true. Bailey came home from his extended trip to his grandparents on Friday night. 43 days to be precise. We spent the weekend in a ridiculous state of bliss, all three of us. Not only did I miss him, but hubby was gone a week too, the last three of those with NO contact, cell or computer. We snuggled, we played, we laughed, we loved.
Today was hubby's first day back at work after vacation and my first day back as a semi-official SAHM. Its been awhile. I've worked since Bailey was born with just small breaks. My only real forray into SAHM-dom was after Logan was born..a gazillion years ago. So its going to take some adjustment for all of us.
But after dinner was made, kitchen cleaned, bath given, story read and now quiet? I feel content. I feel like this is the way it should be. I feel normal.
Who knows what the future is going to bring this year but I am starting to know that I can handle whatever with love, my guys and the Lord by my side.
