I am so thankful for the alone time that I get to spend with my kids. The older they get, the less time it seems that we have together. I really miss those days of having them all to myself. No friends calling, no practices to get to, no last minute homework projects to finish. I often joke about wanting everything to go back to "Little House on the Prairie" times, but I think that that life would be great. So for just a brief moment, I am thankful for the storm that lets me pretend to be in a little cottage on a big farm living the simple life.
*The storm is causing a few problems with the computer. I will add pix later
Amen, sista!

only if aaron were here with us to share it all with.
I don't know about you, but I am bummed I didn't get a chance to use my flashlights!! And thanks for not mentioning that people were in the hardware store in all sorts of ugliness because getting a flashlight was more important than doing your hair :)
