The Reasons I am a Lucky Girl

1. My husband loves our kids. Seems obvious right? I mean, most dads love their children, but mine is great about admiring their strengths, worrying about their problems, and spending time with them.

2. I get to stay home. Not that working doesn't seem like a VERY attractive offer sometimes, and I may get me a little job at some point, but the fact that there is no HAVE TO pressure makes life more pleasant.

3. I live where people bitch about dumb things. (uhhh--that is a blessing?) yes, actually, because people only bitch about dumb things when there are no serious things to bitch about. Crime is low, most people are employed, teachers are good, there is stuff to do, little noise or danger, ect.

4. I am above average intelligence. This may seem a little braggy, but really I am just highlighting what I have. Fashion sense, rockin bod, great teeth, clean house...not so much, so I can have this one thing...

5. 5, count um, 5 cute, smart, funny kids. While they are loud, wild, and don't always demonstrate those manners we work to achieve, they are awesome little people who create this family that I dreamed of having all those years that I played dolls for hours on end.

6. The love of God. No matter what.

I reserve the right to come back and add to this list as I see fit. It is my blog.
