life is good

Ok so Thayne is home and I couldn't be more excited about it. Our routine while Thayne is gone is out the door. We are just flying by the seat of our pants. I have to give up my control and let him be the boss for a while. We are both control freaks and very stubborn. We both have a vision of how things should be and they are completely different than each others. How we get along so well with out fighting is a miracle everyday. The kids love having him home. They hang out with him all the time which is nice because I get a break, and he loves having them hang around him. This morning he woke them up at 6:30 to do yard work and I didn't hear one complaint. They just love him. "Dad's weeding? I'll go help him!". I look at them thinking where did you come from and how come you want to weed now.
So it should be a great day for me. Kids helping dad. I am going off by myself, and we have a date tonight to get massages. I am so excited for that one. To top it off, I think I am even having a good hair day, at least for a few hours.
