"Easy Day"

I put the title in quotes because what I consider "easy" might be different than what others consider "normal" or "easy" but that's a whole different post I've been writing in my head...anyways,, today was a great day - no major issues/attitudes/crisis, etc.  I was in my happy place this morning after Baby and I spend our delicious bonding time together, he snuggled in and snoozed on my lap while I read....later, I took an awesome picture (if I do say so myself!) picture of my 88 year old Grandma holding the hand of "my" precious foster blessing while he was standing (with help) in her backyard on her cement patio. I posted it on Facebook (of course) as "opposite ends of the spectrum" and it was no frills, no crazy cool background - just 2 hands - weathered and old + fresh, new and young...the kids got home, argued, we got through that and studying for Shelby's ridiculous test she has on Friday (I tell you, this teacher gives tests all.the.time - at least one a week.)...Steve came home and we tried a new recipe for dinner. Yeah, not doing this one again (too spicy for me). We hung out together when a new "friend" (I follow her blog and have recently started leaving comments so I had e-mailed her to tell her a little about me and a few of our foster blessings) e-mailed me to tell me that she has a friend who might be interested in Mr. Adorable!!! How wild is that?! We are on different ends of the United States, bonded by the love of babies who are medically fragile and she and I might have just found a forever family for their precious boy whose social worker thinks will take a long, long time to find someone willing to take a chance on this sweet angel we've had the privilege of loving on for twelve incredible weeks. Even if it doesn't work out - just the thought is still a wow!  The kids went to bed (all 3!) and Steve and I hung out, watched TV, I read more of my book and here I am - about to go to bed but trying to be more faithful to my silly blog. :)
