Friday …

It’s Friday night. It’s quiet. The kiddies are asleep. The older ones are doing their thing. My brother and wife are watching Angels and Demons with us.

It’s been nice being with family. It is interesting how alike we are yet so different.

Tomorrow is a day of hockey tournaments. I am looking forward to tomorrow night already.

It is been fun for the cousins to hang out.

The boys skipped school to be home. Is that bad? Really it is about family, isn’t it?

I love my boys. I am proud of them. They are good kids.

We sure eat a lot when we are together! My sister-in-law makes a delicious lasagna. How come food always taste better when someone else makes it?

My brother and I share a love for mint chocolate chip ice cream. Actually who am I kidding? We share a love for sugary goodies.

Tomorrow my family will all be together. Except me. It feels weird to know this. It does make me sad.

I was somewhere and I hear this lady that seems to have it all say “There is no perfect family.”
I really hit me hard. I have been looking for perfection. I have been striving for perfection. No wonder I keep falling short.

I am not sure what there is then. Maybe just different kinds of families. Maybe just families that love each other and keep working on being the best they can be.

I know that loving and being loved is the best feeling in the world. I love showering love upon my babies. I love when they see the love.

Today I picked Tyler up from school… he wanted to go till 1 p.m. (hum… I wonder why???)
I picked up a lunch for him. He gets in the car. “I didn’t take my lunch….” he begins… I hand him the lunch I brought along. “I love you” he says… “You know me so well.”

I loved that.

I love being loved by Sanj. Just a hug or a thank you…. how much a love that. I love appreciation.

It’s been a good day. Busy, tiring but good.
