Re-entry

Posted by Picasa
On Tuesday evening we returned from a 10 day vacation to northern Michigan.
It was blissful and everything we needed.

We came home to sauna-like weather, dead grass, an overwhelming to-do list, and the realities of a schedule.

Im left wondering how to savor our vacation now that we're home, knowing that the work and life here is also a gift.

Perhaps giving thanks is a good place to start....

1. For precious time with family and friends
2. For the lake like an ocean that I love
3. For hammocks
4. For hours and hours to read
5. For sun-kissed skin and sand between our toes
6. For porch naps
7. For watching my kids being loved by their grandparents
8. For ice cream and s'mores
9. For laughter
10. For rest
