-The Mamas and the Papas

Usually Mondays suck, being as it's the start of the workweek for many, kids have to go back to school, weekend party hoppers have to get back into the swing of things, and Friday just seems so far away.

But today is a beautiful day. I love it when the sun shines and the clouds are so far away that they appear wispy in the sky. My flowers are splashing color all around and the grayness of winter is gone. (knock on wood...it's April in Chicago and you never know what will happen to the weather.

I wasn't able to post yesterday, so I'll give a brief Blog Your Blessings and go back outside and bask in the sunlight.

I am blessed in so many ways and I have to constantly remind myself of that fact when I am down and depressed. I am blessed that I have a house for my children to grow up in. It may not be my dream house, but it is a fine little house and can be really cozy when it's clean (not exactly right now though as I have been outside so much that I haven't been doing my chores).

My children have somewhere safe for them to sleep...and that is worth so much in this crazy world.
