What Makes My Monday

A very nice husband who got up this morning -- on his day off -- and started coffee and bacon before I even rolled out of bed...  (Regardless of what the t-shirt may imply, Dan is not a bear in the morning.)



And a sweet eleven-year-old daughter who got up with the little boys at the crack of dawn and sat down with them to quietly watch cartoons.


Ah! Sleeping in! 
Makes My Monday.

It really is the little things in life, isn't it?

    HOW WONDERFUL!!! I don't think there is anything better than waking up to the smells of bacon and coffee. Well, waking up to baby soft kisses might just be better, but bacon and coffee is a close second! :)

    Okay, now Dan has made me hungry but our bacon is frozen so it could be crean of wheat for me today. His T-shirt is impressive and there must be a story behind it.

    That was such a sweet picture of the children all cuddled up.

    Love those red cabinets of yours...is that something new as I don't remember them from other pictures in your kitchen??

    blessings and happy hugs,

    marcy
