Quietly sleeping...

That is what my husband is doing beside me as I type this. We have made it past the normal cacophony produced when he first falls asleep. The tossing and turning, trying to get comfortable, the funny sounds that breathing makes as we go from waking to sleep... and now, he is now simply laying there, breathing softly.. and I can feel that breath on my arm.

I expect he will stir slightly any minute in the light of the computer screen, make a muffled 'hfumph" and turn over... but for now... he is still facing this way... after nearly 11 years, two babies, and a lot of dealing with the "cacophony" of life... And I am blessed.

I am thankful to God for the direction my life has taken. I certainly don't show this daily... I am sometimes discontent day to day. I wonder what might be different about my life it I had made different choices... And, I think this is a common thing to wonder. Nevertheless, I am blessed in so many ways. And I am thankful.
