Conversations and confirmations...

I've got the privilege of staying home today with my two girls--teacher's workday. I love stay-at-home days.  Today has been more than a typical  stay-at-home day, too. A friend found me online and sent me an im.  This im conversation very quickly turned into a lengthy catch-up conversation on the phone.  I don't get to do this often.  Time and circumstances just don't allow for such luxuries.  What a treat.  It was a total reminder of what is to come...time.  Time to spend at my discretion- for family, for friends, for hobbies, for housecleaning (yes, even that). 

While it may have been simply a "catching up with an old friend" conversation to her it was a "confirmation conversation" for me.  It confirmed that the decisions my husband and I are making about me staying home are the right ones.  I knew it, but now I feel it.  My heart is getting happier with each day.  And as for me?  As I said to my dear friend, the Beatles put it best,..."I'm getting better all the time...so much better all the time."
