I am dedicating this blog to my sweet husband. If you know Will, you know how silly and witty he is. That is his legacy...a goofball.
Well, I am here to tell the world that there is WAY more to this man than his jokes.
I have been noticing that he has been really in tune to me, and Ben, and the house, and his job, and his relationships. I was driving in the car this morning just reminiscing of the weekend. It made me smile. He just really hit the ball out of the park last week, to use a lame metaphor. He hung three curtains for me without me even having to ask. On Valentines Day, he had an adorable arrangement of goodies waiting for me in the living room. We enjoyed some good conversation and time with our family of three. One of the things I noticed was
we didn't leave the house a lot during the day. We usually are eager to rush out the door in the mornings and go do something. Sometimes we will leave and not even know where we are going until we get there. This is partly due to the fact that Ben likes to go-go-go. But, I think one thing that made this weekend so wonderful was
we intentionally slowed down our thinking, didn't act impulsively, and just soaked up every ounce of togetherness. It's hard to explain an amazing weekend and why it was amazing. No one really cares about all the details anyway. So, they will be mine to keep.
Thank you Will for being you.
These Days:
I am learning PHOTOSHOP and ILLUSTRATOR.And, with those newly acquired skills, I am working on a birthday banner for B!
I made this delicious chocolate cake from the cookbook of Ina Garten
GET THE RECIPE!!!I have Ben's playroom nearly finished.
Now I must tackle his closet. I'm aiming for this:
I am going to start collecting letters everywhere I may find them, so I can do something like this:
LOVE IT!! I have never been a 'collector" of anything, so I think this will be a fun project.
AND...We are going to a small group at a neighbor's house tonight and every Tuesday thereafter. This will be our first time in a couples small group, so we are really excited. 'Lola' will be playing with Ben during this time, and I am hoping that they will become pals! :)
