Does it get much better than this?


Henry is in bed for the night. Andy is at a basketball game. The new toy tractor that beeps and grunts and snorts that Henry has been playing with all. day. long. is finally quiet. It's just me, my cozy slippers, a cheery Christmas tree, still warm from the oven chocolate chip cookies, and a mug of milk.

Thank you Lord for crazy, loud days. They make the stillness of night and the simples pleasures of life all that much sweeter.

I LOVE IT, Jeannett! Cozy, warm and quiet. Enjoy it while you can - and as often as you can.
