Favorite Things: An Update

0

Sorry Ms. Andrews, but my favorite things are looking a little different this holiday season. Those white dresses with blue sashes may look great in pictures, but at my house they’ll be covered in chocolate, boogers, or both by the time you open that brown paper package. Here’s what I’m loving this year: 

 

Counters with crock pots and free grocery pick-up

Amazon Prime and hot coffee in my cup

Bright colored lights on the houses and trees

THESE are a few of my favorite things

Christmas tree in a window

Bodily fluids inside of the toilet

Snuggling my kids inside sheets that are not wet

Normal temp’tures and the words “fever free” 

THESE are a few of my favorite things. 

 

Pants on my children with sockses and shoeses

Jackets and hats so their nose don’t turn bluses

Giggles and laughter as they are playing

THESE are a few of my favorite things

 

With their kind words

And their big smiles

When they say “Thank You”

I get to remember that mommin’s a gift

And “Hey! No! Don’t eat that glue!”

Codi Plaster
Codi grew up in a college town where she graduated (twice), met her husband, and still lives. When she had 3 kids in 3.5 years, no one was more surprised than her. Fortunately, instead of driving her crazy (although it was a close one), motherhood has brought her into a deeper faith and a daily reliance on the Lord. Her day job has her working with college students that she believe will change the world if they can get off of their phones long enough to get to work. Her husband is an incredible special education teacher and the kids are silly, whiny, funny, and loud which, as it turns out, is the perfect combination of their parents.
