Another day of perfect weather!

It's just so beautiful!!!
I had a very productive weekend. Got some closets cleaned out and organized (I just wish I could find a neat way to keep our shoes since we ahve a small closet!!)and got some things together for a Goodwill trip...which I really will make one day.
Derrick was able to get some yard work done, and we planted some grass seed today. I hope it starts to grow soon-we had so many dandelions this year and lots of bare patches in the yard. Now that I'm outside with the kids so much I really notice all the outdoor things I didn't pay much attention to before, and Derrick's "honey-do list" is growing each day! lol
The kids had a great time with Aunt Marilyn and Uncle Larry today and Derrick and I really enjoyed our time away. It's the perfect time of year to get out and about alone!!
And a huge accomplishment for me? This morning I was feeling like I really needed that time with Derrick so he could once again reassure me and tell me everything was going to be okay. It's a role I've come to depend on him for, and it isn't fair...to either of us. Today as soon as I had that thought, I immediately had another thought (placed there by God, I'm sure), that I don't need Derrick, or anyone, to reassure me things are going to be okay. I KNOW they will be okay. I may not know HOW things are going to work out, but that's okay now. I've become comfortable with the fact that I don't have to know every detail of how/when/why. I can just have faith that things WILL work out. And what a blessing that is! (And a huge relief for Derrick, I'm sure).
Our time together today was so much more enjoyable without having to have serious conversations about what if's. I was totally able to just enjoy our time together and the awesome weather and leave all the other "stuff" alone for a while.
It's the end to another very fast weekend, and I'm wishing I didn't have to go back to work tomorrow. I hate being stuck inside this time of year. Join the crowd, right??!
Have a good night!
