A day full of unexpecteds

I loved today! I woke up to a sunshiney morning and Bryon said he would take Matthew to school. This is always wonderful for me. I love having the opportunity to stay in my PJ's until noon if I want to! Bryon had jury duty this morning so he stayed in town for that.

At lunch, Bryon called and said that he had an hour break and that he was coming home. This happens just a few times a year, so I was very happy to have him home.

As I mentioned before, today was a beautiful, sunny day. We are blessed in this part of the country with lots of sunshine; however, it has been cloudy and gray it seems for weeks so the sun was a welcome change. After a nice lunch, Thomas, ME, and I went for a walk to get some fresh air. This was my first outing with the double wide stroller with ME, but I thought it would go well. When I was several streets over, Mary Beth started screaming (I think she was tired). It got to a point where I had to pick her up to take her home. That was quite a workout! Holding my chunky almost 7 month old and maneuvering the double wide with Thomas getting up constantly. I am sure I was a sight!

Bryon was through with jury duty at 4 and instead of going on to work, he decided to come home. What a treat! We are both in major spring cleaning mode, so we went over to our storage and cleaned it out. We also are going through closets and drawers trying to get down to the bare necessities. The less stuff in them, the less stuff the kids can get in to! :)

I am always thankful for days with unexpected joys. Back to the real world tomorrow!
