I love Spring


Today was a great day. I woke up this morning to a light drizzle of rain outside. By the time we were heading to the bus stop it had stopped and it was clearing. If you've never experienced a spring in Virginia you are really missing something! It's so green here. It's beautiful. Of course, I love Spring. Spring is just a step away from Summer, and that means the Beach!
Macen is feeling better so off to school he went. I came home and I didn't have to clean, or do laundry, or shop..I could just "BE" I like days like today. It makes for a nice mommy! I read. I listened to music. I took a walk. I looked at houses. I talked to my mom AND my cute husband.
I am so thankful for my life. There are times that I think I'm going crazy, but then I realize, being crazy is who I am!
My husband is on the verge of retiring from the Navy. It's bittersweet. I love the security the Military gives, but I'm so ready to have the love of my life home with me. I will miss the adventure the Navy life brings, but I am so ready to have a "normal" life. Macen loves having his dad home. I love being able to plan vacations knowing that my husband will be able to go with us. I love the life that I have lead, but now it's time for new.
It's beautiful outside tonight. My windows are open. My son is dreaming peacefully in his sleep. My Husband is safe aboard the Cole. My dogs are in bed. Life is good for the Caufield clan. (Knock on wood)
I honestly don't care about politics, birth control, gas prices, or silly celebrities tonight. My life will be okay no matter what happens. Don't misunderstand..I will voice my opinion. I will fight the fights that need fighting...but tonight, there is no fight in me. Just peace.
So, tonight, my dear friends..sleep well. Have sweet dreams. Know that you are safe and loved!
