Reasons


A month ago, the weather teased us with temps in the 70s. I couldn't believe how the nice cool mornings totally boosted my mood! Well, don't worry, it was back in the 80s and muggy until 3 days ago! I am hoping FALL is here to stay and here's why:

1. Cool enough for the AC to be off which allows me to keep the sliding door open and watch/listen Hannah play in the sandbox while being productive inside
(it cracks me up how much I cherish uninterrupted cleaning time! Who knew I could be so thorough and efficient....Mom?

2. No AC in the van (less gas). Feel the breeze girls!

3. I really need to learn how to make soup. Like BASIC step by step instructions. Couldn't make a bowl of chicken noodle soup if I tried right now (c'mon I have kids now, what are they supposed to eat when they get sick?)so when you get a second, email me your tips and best/easiest recipes...that would be awesome.

4. Hoodies. 'Nuf said.

5. Indian corn (candy corn's most scrumptious cousin)

6. This is a gross one but I am so sick of the stench of our(outside)garbage making me gag every time I even get close. 2 in diapers + sun beating down on a black g. can = well, you can imagine.

7. Hannah's #2.

8. Plus all the fall colors, general conference, warm socks, long sleeved shirt/sweaters, actually sleeping with a blanket on top of me, apple crisp...I could go on and on...

Are you with me? Oh, and the nice thing about fall in NC is it last for about 4 months. Saweet.

WHY


is it not enough just to simply ignore the people who hurt us the most? That would be so much easier. Matt 5:44.
