Here's to maintaining some self-respect and sanity while tending to the growth and maturation of young minds, including your own young mind. Here's to recognizing that it isn't necessary to know how everything is going to turn out in advance, and that often Life has much better in store than one can imagine. Here's to hope and happiness even when Life gets complicated, especially then... That's when it's needed it most.

...afterall, the car may only seat seven but room for friends is unlimited...

Having been to IKEA

I'm so glad that they decided to build here. They have been packed, no surprise. We've spent a little time there ourselves. Our mudroom is now organized, let the joyous news be spread the wicked old mess is dead. There are examples throughout the house of how much we love it. It was worth waiting for. I'm so glad we didn't give in to the urge to "just get it done". It would have cost much much more, and we wouldn't have been as pleased. As it is, we knocked half of our to do list out in a couple of days, and honestly - just how often can you say that? Can't wait to have the money to work on the rest of our to do list.
