Things I forgot about

I have noticed an increase in my happiness lately, and have dedicated the next 48 words to explaining the source of my newfound joy:


Isaac's home Isaac's home Isaac's home Isaac's home Isaac's home Isaac's home Isaac's home Isaac's home Isaac's home Isaac's home Isaac's home Isaac's home Isaac's home Isaac's home Isaac's home Isaac's home Isaac's home Isaac's home Isaac's home Isaac's home Isaac's home Isaac's home Isaac's home Isaac's home!


I came home one night after a truly rotten day at work to my handsome hubby who made dinner, cleaned it up, and gave me a back rub.


I forgot what a breath of fresh air it used to be to come home to him after "I'm pretty sure I need to quit my job" days. Somehow after joking around during dinner and watching him wash dishes for me, the terrors of the day seem like distant memories.


I forgot the small joys of trying to decipher what he's saying with a mouth full of toothpaste foam and of trying keep each other awake during scriptures. 


I forgot how much more quickly sleep comes when he's next to me.


I forgot how our little bedroom seems less lonely, dark, and quiet with Isaac in it, even when the only sound he contributes is the soft breathing of sleep. He also brought home the nightlight, so that probably explains the "less dark" thing...


In the end, we are extra grateful to live in the same house again. 


And, so I don't forget that the Chicago thing really happened, here's some final proof:


At Wait Wait... don't tell me! We're smiling because we already know it's going to be epic.
And it was. If you want to hear the show, go here. You'll laugh, I promise.

Camber shaking Carl Kassel's hand. And regretting the Thai food we just ate. Garlic breath? Probably.

This was probably a highlight of Carl's day.

Sometimes a large dirty city can look kinda pretty.

At the Lincoln Park zoo. But you can't see any animals in this picture. Sorry.
