Somedays...

Somedays I feel tired and want to crawl back in bed...
and then I see this face.
Somedays I am tired of being chauffeur and just want to stay home...
and then I turn around and see this.
Somedays I want to stay inside while the kids play outside...
and then I see this look of concentration and want to watch to see what he'll do next.
Somedays I am sick and tired of snotty noses and poopy diapers...
and then I see this and just have to laugh (and take a picture).
Somedays I feel like I can't wash one more dirty dish or cook one more dinner...
and then I see this man who loves me and will go to the ends of the earth for our family.
Somedays I don't want to answer one more question or hear one more whine...
and then she does this (posing behind her picture of a spider).
Somedays I am counting down the minutes (seconds) until bedtime...
and then I look out the window and see this.

Life really is good. And I am very blessed. Somedays I just have to remind myself of this.
