am doing some housework and have started decorating for fall. all things I enjoy. okay, the housework, not such a joy, but the results are nice. lol. I love making my home look nice each season. if it gets nicer out I'll have the kids go outside to hunt for acorns to use. maybe we'll go ahead out and get some mums for the porch. I'm going to continue doing the things I love, continue making my house a home, all that stuff, even when sometimes it feels so empty. I'm going to continue to appreciate my blessings. I am so lucky! I know I am. some things might suck, but I have so much more in my life to love.
I just read an article on Jennifer Garner and the most important thingss her mother taught her to prepare for motherhood. This girl is so sweet. She said that her mother taught her the importance of setting a nice table even if there was no company. To keep the house lovely for the family every season as though they were treasured company. I thought that was so cute.
You are a wonderful mother and you never know what the kids will take with them so keep up the good work. Do you ever wonder if/ when your H comes home if the kids will even remember the seperation? I have heard many stories of WSs coming back after missing their families after a year and the kids kind of erase that year from their memory and moms just act as if it never happened.
I don't think that happens in our quick paced generation of disposables. I think women are taught not to put up with that year of waywardness nowadays.
