Tuesday afternoon

1.  Spending time with family

At my grandpa's funeral I was so happy that I was able to spend so much time with my family.  Though my grandpa leaves a huge absence, my heart was absolutely full.  When it was 8 or 9 in Valpo I still didn't want to leave.  Mike suggested that he head home and I would stay back to spend more time.  I ended staying up until 3 am just talking with my grandma and cousins from Australia and SanFran.  Needless to say I was absolutely exhausted the next day but so freaking grateful I stayed.  Cheers to you grandpa.

My aunt told me I MUST write this down:  The immediate family went to the grave site before the celebration of life.  After we were finished at the grave site we packed back into the car before heading to the funeral home.  As Mike was buckling Jack in he said, "Was that it?  Did we come here just to see the hole in the ground?" 

2.  The next day

Jack and I both fell asleep on the couch Sunday afternoon while Mike also was sleeping before work.  It was nice to have some extra moments of shut eye.  Also, I did NOTHING around the house which makes it for an easy Sunday as well. 

3. Family SONG

Last night on the way home from yoga the boys started breaking out in song.  We were walking to the car and Jack started to sing his new favorite song - the shark song.  All of a sudden the twins joined in with hand movements and all.  We all smiled and laughed all the way to the car. 

4.  Hugs at daycare

At the end of the day when I pick up Jack from daycare I get about 10,000 hugs.  I get down to give him a huge hug and kiss and then most of the kids head my way to play with my hair, tell me about their day and give me a million more hugs.  It's one of my favorite parts of my day.

5. Morning Workout

Basically - I am grateful that I got my ass out of bed. I've really been struggling but today was a good day.  The workout kicked my ass and I am super glad I went.
