Always

There is always dishes on my counter.

There is always toys scattered across the floor.

There is always clothes in the washer, and the drier, and needing to be folded.

There is always someone who 'says' they are hungry.

There is always phone calls to return, and emails to respond too.

But.....

....there is always a smile on my face.


There is always healthy food for hungry tummies.

There is always soft snowy bubbles in the sink...and little hands reaching for them....

There is always fresh crisp clothes to stretch out in.

There is always friends coming through the door.

There is always the happy chatter of the baby amongst those toys.


There is always laughter.


Our home is full of good things. Laughter, joy, learning, and love. Life!

Always. I couldn't ask for more.
