So Blessed.

Did you miss me? 

I'm sitting on the couch, looking at all of the pictures that we took this weekend and feeling very blessed.  I have an amazing family.  There are days we all would like to kill each other, but that's what makes us even tighter.  The only thing missing was 

Mom and I got a nice long visit, it was wonderful.  But even better, was a weekend with Hunter that was LONG overdue.  It's funny.  Each time I see him, he's grown a little more.  Not in size, but in character.  

I've spent years wondering just what kind of impact Jeff has had on the lives of the boys.  I always knew that it would be a positive contribution, but when you have a blended family, you have to wonder who picks up what and from whom.  So my heart melted when I saw this picture...

And it melted again when I saw this one...

So Jeff's contributions are what have made us a family.  Albeit, a sarcastic family, but a family none the less.  And the boys are so much funnier, happier and well adjusted for it.  

So thank you Jeff...for all you have brought to our lives.  Thank you Mom, for bringing Hunter "home" to his mom.  Thank you Hunter for finding a 24 hour period in your crazy schedule to come "camp" with us.  And most importantly, thank you Will for taking care of everything at home so we could sneak away for a few days.  I'm hoping and praying that it won't be long until all of us can do it together!
