Tonight, we visited with family. What a wonderful thing. It sounds so ordinary, but I think I can count on two hands, maybe a toe or two, the times we have had family visitors since we were married. My husband's parents have been our most frequent visitors. I have always enjoyed them. And my parents have come a couple of times. We've been so far though. And, parents are parents.
Tonight, we went to dinner with cousins who were in town. It was wonderful. I know, I just used that word. And I wish I could think of a better one. There isn't one though. That one says what I think too well. It was absolutely wonderful to laugh often and enjoy the safety that good family can bring.
Now that atleast half the boxes are cleared and most of the furniture is reassembled, I can think about how much I am going to like being closer to so many of the people I love dearly. And it's good thinkin!
