Family

I am really enjoying family time! Today, my mom came over and had lunch with us. I really like having her come over and enjoying the afternoon together.

We also had a left-over dinner, which ranged from BBQ Tempeh and mashed potatoes, to Asian stir-fry to Indian latkes. Yum!

We are in the middle of our double-feature movie night. First was "Up" and now we are getting ready to watch "Transformers 2." Popcorn is popping in the kitchen and Starcat is on the other computer finishing up her blog challenge.

Now that I got the "facts" of the day going, here is something more: My heart is full of joy!

I am so thankful for my wonderful family, both blood and chosen that I have created! I have such a wonderful partner in Starcat, and I am glad that we have found each other! The kids are great and fresh, and I am learning so much about myself through learning and teaching with them. The "Boys" are strong and powerful and gentle, in their own ways, and I am really thankful for their energy and courage and happiness. I am thankful for "whose a puppy!". She is such a sweet dog and, even though she still smells of skunk, I love her! And of course, the kitten babies. I am so thankful that they are so cute and cuddly and want to sleep with me! Yay kittens!

I hope all of you out there are as thankful as I am with their family. Even with all the challenges we may face, love always will overcome fear.

Wishing you and yours many blessings!
