Too blessed...

Little Alyssa has had one nasty cold for a week now, so I haven't gotten out much. Yes, I've been going stir crazy - and if you call my house, be forewarned that I will talk the ear off any adult that seems even slightly interested in listening to me.

That said, I have gotten a ton done around this house. We spent a couple days in the basement cleaning. We dumped every toy containing box, got rid of broken things, threw away the garbage (do you think used kleenexes belong in the dress-up bench? Apparently at least one of my kids does - gross), and then put everything back in order. Yes, there was plenty of griping and complaining the first day, but the second day I think they all resigned themselves to the fact that they were stuck in the basement with me until the job got done, so they worked hard.

Now today, with my to-do-list tucked away, I'm enjoying a "holding Alyssa, playing battleship with Lucas, reading Kayla's new masterpice, & watching my best friend and son conquer the world" kind of Saturday. Ahhhhhhhhhh, I just want to freeze time and let today last forever.
