Thankful Thursday

I saw the Lucky Bus yesterday in a relatively unexpected place, so I just knew some good news was on the way.

This morning a couple of phone calls may have indicated just that. It can be very tricky living with a supertrucker whose shifts can be a bit random so the power of the Lucky Bus is greatly appreciated right now. I'm gonna throw in a Kthxbai just to lock it in.

My big kids are back at school, and the house is abnormally quiet. I'm grateful that they are both doing so well and that my big boy in particular seems to have finally settled in. He has two great teachers which is just wonderful. We had two and a half weeks off which for me was just the right amount of time to enjoy each other but not get too cranky. The beautiful crisp Autumn days of the past week have helped a lot too.

The supertrucker has been home for quite a long stretch (for him) and it's so awesome having him here. The big kids feel it the most when he is away, with their school hours and his work hours they often miss each other so they have loved having the extra time with Daddy.

Lots to be thankful for this Thursday. How about you?
