Lazy Sunday

On Sunday, I slept in.  I know, I know, I should have gotten up and gone to church, but it was a much needed opportunity to sleep in and actually was the first time I slept in since Brady left (I have been sleeping with either the TV on or a light each night since he left which has made for less than stellar rest).  Every other time the kids have been gone overnight, I still woke up at like 7am.  On Sunday, I slept in until 11 and still have 5 hours until I needed to get the kids from my parents' house.  

So what did I do?  

I could have done some laundry (okay, I did do 1 load), I could have tidied up the house, I could have gone to the grocery store...  I didn't do any of that.  I worked out and proceeded to watch the remaining 4 episodes of Revenge on my DVR and it was WONDERFUL.  Yeah it meant I might have to brave the store with 2 wild children, but sometimes, you just gotta relax and forget your responsibilities.  

I am so grateful my parents live nearby and give me a break each weekend.  I am a social being BUT I need my alone time to reenergize and that's exactly what I got on Sunday.

And Brady comes home tonight! :)

XOXO,

Butterflies :)

As the saying goes, "absence makes the heart grow fonder."  Well, this text message this morning gave me butterflies :).  It's the little things that matter most!

XOXO,
