this hearts on fire

I went to vancouver and i got a haircut (see up there) and i got a sad heart.

But then! I came home and it was spring and not just spring but practically summer!

Today we took the hammock out and i worked in the garden. I even raked up all the little bits of gravel from the driveway that had worked their way down the steps at the side of the house and filled up pot holes on the driveway.

Holy crap. Now THAT is exciting!

Seriously, when i am away from my home and shane, i lose all touch with reality. With the things that are important. The little beings that fill my heart with joy. The husband who loves me and i love to bicker with and make up with. Who drives me crazy by hanging his towel over the shower door every morning instead of on the rack when he know's i'm going to come in right after him and have to hang it up. That's what family is. Stinky socks, smelly morning breath, tickles in bed and toilets flushed while mommies are in the shower.

Parker is still trying to kill me. Seriously. Every night he wakes up several (and by that i mean at least six) times before i even get to bed. It is so frustrating not getting more than twenty minutes alone. But, you know, life is short and so am i. So today i realized that soon enough all of this will be over. Parker will be 3 and then 4 years old and i will have no more babies. I need to cherish every single frustrating moment like it's my last. Because it is.
