15. This didn't happen over the weekend because my mom was visiting. And her presence was sweet relief. Professor and I went out shopping, we all enjoyed a Thanksgiving fellowship at church, the girls soaked up Grandma time...it was good, good, good!
16. And as much as I adore my mom visiting, my kids act like crazy people when she's here. GRANDMA!?!!! WE'VE NEVER SEEN PEOPLE BEFORE; WE DON'T KNOW HOW TO ACT IN PUBLIC; WANNA PUT ME TO BED?! WELL, YOU'RE GONNA HAVE TO EARN IT!!!!!! So, it's also lovely to get back to the routines of our quiet, little life...and {less} crazy children.
17. And that brings us to the video. First of all, I'm thankful that God is working on me--specifically in the anger department. I used to have a dreadful temper; cousins, friends, my brother have been on the receiving end of it, and it's no fun. Professor got it once and set me straight in the most comical and iron-sharpening-iron kind of way, which has made all the difference. I am thankful my children have not known that side of me.
18. The humor of life with small children. Because really? This mess didn't take much time to clean up, nobody was hurt, and the baby looks super cute all covered in homemade syrup.
19. Indoor plumbing. Think about it: we take our ability to turn on the tap and get cold or HOT water at a moment's notice completely for granted. I am so thankful that I could plunk Scrunch in the tub, turn on the shower, and get her cleaned up in a minute without drawing, hauling, or heating water.
