Rest

I am extremely grateful for a record breaking December. We are exhausted but so grateful.

Mark for the first time in the time I have known him missed all Saturdays of December and the one Sunday we were open due to extreme illness which he is still battling.

We are enjoying a few days off….being with our children….and like everything fun it’s over to fast.

I think we measure an experience by how long we were able to enjoy one another….but we just really just think about the moments. I used to constantly measure how good a holiday was by how long my son would be home….but now I just count the moments. I think it’s important not to show disappointment with our adult children with how long g they decide to spend with us…:to respect their time and be glad they chose some time with us. I never want to guilt them….home should bring comfort….never where they don’t measure up.

It should be a place of their favorite snacks and clean sheets and long mornings. It should bring fluffy towels and hot showers and still getting stockings.
