*Countless people showing up to finish up packing, move boxes, and unpack.
*Seeing the sunset from our bedroom window
*Crying tears of relief (admittedly, in between panic attacks but happy tears nonetheless)
*Super soft Berber carpet
*The boys each saying after taking individual showers for the night, "This shower is amazing!" Or, as Shawn put it, humongously wonderful.
*Ice cream in our completely unpacked retreat of a bedroom
*M decorating my bathroom so peacefully (after Brando walked in and said, "I love the way you guys set up the bathroom." I let go of the fact that I just won't ever be as good as M is at putting things together to where they look fabulous - doesn't matter what it is - I'm just happy she comes over to work her magic in my homes!)
*Li's humor to the day - especially when she put a tealight candle chimnea pottery over Shawner's armadillo, Army's, face like a gas mask and said, "This is what would happen if I decorated."
*My absolute amazing fantastic hubby who, when I panic tells me what to focus on, and when I tell him that's not what I need - I need to hear the positives, starts listing off the positives on cue, who holds me when I tell him I'm panicking and I'm so pissed off that I can't make it stop, who buys me ice cream when he goes into the store for milk and cereal for the boys, then, when I scoop it for us because he laid down and was too exhausted to get back up, tells me make sure and give yourself extra cookie dough cause that's what I would do if I was getting it
*My fantastic nephew and his girlfriend taking the boys to play mini golf this evening with the youth group after unpacking
