Simply Happy

It's 9pm on a Saturday night.  The house is utterly quiet, kids and husband tucked into bed.  Dishes piled up in the sink, toys every where, the house a mess and honestly a little bit of dinner left over on the oven.  But really, I'm not too worried about it.  You know why?  Because I'm content.

Our daily schedule is usually chaos.  If we don't have a lot planned to keep us busy then we're usually at home staying busy just trying to keep up with the boys.  But I'm okay with that.  Today was just one of those days where Tyler had one thing going on, me another and the boys were lucky enough to spend some time with some pretty awesome family who likes to help us out.  You see, tonight made me analyze what we have going on.  And I mean really look at our life.  Ok, so maybe tonight's church sermon had a little to do with that....  :)

Tyler and I both have great jobs, we both actually like what we do and both these jobs pay enough for us to live comfortable lives and take care of our family. We have each other, we have 3 beautiful little boys and we have a ton of family and friends who love us and surround us.  We have food on the table and a roof over our heads.  Our children are not lacking in toys or clothing and they are healthy.  We have everything we need.  Of course it would be great to have just a little bit more money, lose a couple inches around the waist or even get a couple more hours of sleep at night.  But really, we have everything we need.  We're not rich by any means, I mean financially rich.  But in my eyes we are rich.  We've struck gold!  Let me re-iterate WE HAVE EVERYTHING WE NEED. We're pretty darn lucky to have the life we have and I'm content.

I mean....who wouldn't be with these 3 amazing hooligans in their life?!
