where the heart is

home.
i got to be there.
and now i'm back at school-for a few horrible minutes, i wasn't quite sure i wanted to be back. and then i realized my heart is here too, making it feel quite nice too.

i had the best weekend at home-it started at the train station on wednesday and lasted all the way until sunday afternoon.
some of the things that are still making me smile at the end of a monday:
-hugs. lots of hugs.
-sleeping in.
-playing yahtzee.
-snuggling. concept by paul.
-watching (and quoting) finding nemo.
-having the most hilarious family meeting lead by paul to determine november birthday plans.
-being interviewed by john.
-not feeling grown-up.
-scraping frozen juice boxes.
-being sent back to bed, so peter and paul could serve me breakfast in bed.
-having kitties fall asleep on my lap.
-watching a movie under the stars, bundling up, eating popcorn, roasting marshmallows, laughing.
-taking pictures.
-helping john study.
-playing checkers.
-talking with gramma.
-seeing aunt connie and lorie.
-watching mrs. doubtfire.
-purring kitties.
-playing tic-tac-toe.
-having lizzie hug me at church.
-being at church and seeing my church family.
-playing twister.
-celebrating paul's 1/2 birthday with a yummy tea party.

-having dear friends to come back to.
