Family

I think I can truthfully say that spending time with my family is one of the most enjoyable things I can do! Tonight I got to spend a few hours with my parents, brother, sister-in-law, and their kids. We talked, sang, had berry cobbler (which was exciting for me, because it's the first solid food I've eaten since having my wisdom teeth extracted on Thursday!), and generally hang out. I got to watch my nieces and nephews playing. At one point, I even got to laugh at their dismay. I'm sorry that that sounds cruel, but if you've ever seen a kid burst into tears over some silly little thing, you'll understand. I guess the enjoyment was heightened by the fact that it was the first time I've really spent with people for three days, which is hard for me, because I'm very much a people person! Being cooped up and not able to eat because of having teeth pulled really makes you appreciate the small things in life. Enjoy what you've got while you have it!! =)

  2. Yes, this is definitely my favorite of all times. When my whole family is together... it's where I feel complete and secure. I can just lean back and look around me and everything just seems right. Like my life is complete. I'll definitely miss that now.
