I realized that I *TRULY* live a charmed life.
Now, don't get me wrong, I still work hard, and have irritants daily, but today is the prime example of a Charmed life.
Here is how my day went.
I woke at 6 a.m. to get my 2 full time students out the door, I had food in the pantry and fridge plenty to feed them both.
After they were both situated I got to gaze out my front windows with breathtaking views. They never get old.
I then had the rest of my crew wake and fed.
I took my 10 year old daughter, who is homeschooling full-time outside to the hammock, where we read for an hour while lazing in the shade. The views from this side of my house are equally stunning, and I shared with her how I thought, "This is the most beautiful view in all the world" to which she replied...." No, you are." tears and a lump formed. She and I snuggled and giggled together. (Hammocks should be mandatory for raising kids)
Then I wrestled my rowdy boys into that same hammock, seriously testing its weight capacity, and the 3 of us had a tickle war, I made the same observation to my 7 year old son, about the utter beauty of our view.... as if on cue, he replied, "Nothing is more beautiful than you, Mom."
Gasp. Sigh.
It was at this very moment, that i realized this life I live, full of laundry, and legos, errands, and errors. Truly is The Life.
I promise you I have VAST flaws and room for improvement. But today. I am their world, and They are mine!
