Happy Halloween 2015

Our numbers are dwindling. John worked then partied with friends and video games. Emily watched scary movies with friends in our basement. Thomas was bummed that john took the Xbox but all was well when he got to go hang out with his cousin Zach for a while. Jack was invited to a five hour party with friends from school. Sam joined his best friend and his family for the sixth year in a row ( he would live with them if I let him). I walked Leah and Ruby around the block and we called it good. Then because it's daylight savings and we get more sleep, we're all staying up really late. Smart. We enjoyed our traditional soup dinner with our neighbors to start off the festivities and tomorrow starts my favorite day of the year...the end of Halloween and the beginning of a great two months.

"Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness, that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, and fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small doesn't serve the world. There's nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We are born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It's not just in some of us, it's in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others."

I Love...

Jack's fire and rhythm
Leah!!!
Leah's uniqueness and constant companionship
Little John's hugs. And his love and care for others (just like his dad).
Thomas' sweet love for babies. And that smile....
and am obsessed with the color blue
baby feet
cooking for my family and actually having it taste good.
having someone play with or fix my hair
laughing at John (my husband) when he barks at the dog..."barf, barf"
my honey more than anything!!!
my sweet and new RubySue. The cherry on top.
to cuddle with Sam and kiss his cheeks
to hear John sing
to hear my children sing
to sit among the Higginsons and listen to them sing
whatchamacallits
when Emily gets teary eyed because she feels happy about making a right choice or because she feels sad for somebody or something.
