Going to Bed with Smiles on our Faces

Today was a good day. We all got a lot of things done. Coupons were cut. Shopping was done. Help with homework was given. And after a month off after surgery, workouts were begun.

Pleasantly worn out from a very productive day, everyone was ready to call it a goodnight and head out of sight when low and behold little Lily arose with an Apples to Apples game to play for Family Game Night.

One-by-one we were slowly recruited, until all six of us around the table were seated. And as the game began and later a winner was sung, everyone ignored the end-of-game rules and play continued.

When we finally broke camp and hugs and kisses were exchanged, a warm glow overtook my heart and I saw that we were all going to bed with smiles on our faces.
