A Christmas Fort.

Good morning!
Mr. Husband is home.  Yippee!!!!
And he’s home until after New Years! (Do you hear those Angels singing?)
So we’re soaking up this time together.
Funny, we were so looking forward to a quiet Christmas in our own home this year,
but him being gone makes this time even more special.
We could sit around and do nothing all day
which sounded pretty nice to both of us.
But we decided to spice it up a little.
Welcome to our little fort!
We snacked on yummy cheeses and fruit.
And we watched as many Christmas movies as our tired little eyes could.
[that’s 4, by the way]
We’re doing our best to make happy, sweet memories
in this little home before we have to leave it for good.
Christmas: I’m a fan.
There were a lot of years
when I’d get pretty sad at Christmastime no matter how joy filled the days were
because Mr. Husband and I couldn’t be together.
So this year seems like one of those monumental moments 
in the history of our relationship.
This is the Christmas I dreamed about
when my sad little twenty year old heart
really missed him.
MERRY CHRISTMAS!
**I have to admit that I saw Miss Chelsea’s post and thought: hey that sounds awesome.  Thanks for the idea, love!  This blogging world, friends.  It’s pretty amazing.  Find a sweet way to make a memory with your love tonight.  If we can all inspire each other to do that, what a sweet thing that is.**

My only hope is that while you’re here, you feel a sense of belonging, comfort and empowerment. Because life is too short to live it worried you’re not good enough.
