Focusing on being content where we are in life right now. It's not easy but I am going to make the most of it. Some of the things that make a house a home to me are
~Tidiness (not spotless)
~Organized common areas
~It's gotta smell good!
I can never smell our house smell but I know it smells good because I get comments on it every time someone is over. I think I have become nose blind to it.
I want our kids and hubby to come home to a soft place to land as some call it. A place they look forward to coming home to after school and work, where things are just easy and where they can just be and feel at home. Some things I know that the kids appreciate are
~Snacks, easy snacks!
~Less Chores
~Time with Mommy
~Things in their place so they can get onto playing with them
~A clean place to do homework
Some things I know hubby appreciates are:
~Snacks, especially if dinner is not ready when he gets home
~Time to unwind after work
~Less hustle and bustle and more downtime
We aren't here just yet but slowly working on it.
I'm going to try and share a little bit each week how I am getting us to this place where Home is a Haven and the place we all want to be.

Very thought provoking. I need to make my own list
