One of the boys.

Day 242

This school year is almost over. I'm excited that I will get to stay home with my babes, but I am sad to say goodbye to my students.

I love the sound of quiet, rolling thunder and rain on my windows while I lay in bed and write.

Higbee is the most hilarious dog. Yesterday, he wanted to be up with my dad and Matt while they were working on our bathroom remodel. We kept trying to keep him out of our room because we thought he'd get into stuff, but we finally gave in and let him hang with the guys. All he did was lay on the floor of our room with his head resting on the bathroom floor watching my dad and Matt. Matt said he would sigh now and then. When they finished with their work for the night, they came down to get a drink. While my dad and Matt drank, Higbee sat at his bowl and drank. Then they sat down at the table to talk, and Higbee jumped up and sat down at the table as well. He just wanted to be one of the boys.

Matt likes to hug me for a long time when I come home from work.

I love when my kids smile. They have the most beautiful smiles.

I'm really happy when I get to bed before 9.

Thankful.
