HOME

So, a lot of people have asked me if I've adjusted back to being home since my cruise. If they mean, are you glad you got to clean your bathrooms this week, then the answer is a big fat no. But, in most ways, yes! I'm very glad to be home. It was a great experience, but the last couple days I was very ready to see my family again.

And how nice to be welcomed home to a clean house, laundry clean and folded, and several of these cute signs taped up around the house! (My husband is the best!)

And who wouldn't be excited to start spending every day with these two cuties!?!

I find that each time I'm away for a few days, I always come back ready to be super-mom. Here are the projects I jumped right into after arriving home.

Don't ask me how this is going. I have decided to quit at least a dozen times in my mind before then deciding to be a little more patient with it. My first two were so easy to train, but this one is driving me crazy!

This, however, is going a little better. I started both Connor and Mylie a little over a week ago, and we've already had two or three lessons with each. They are progressing well and having fun with it (especially Mylie, who LOVES it!)

So, do I wish that somebody was still cooking, cleaning, and taking care of my every need? Sure. Do I plan to go one more vacations? Absolutely. But although I'm tired, busy, and often frustrated, the fun of cruising really can't compare with the true joy of motherhood.
