Contentment

It's not every day you get to sit back, and truly feel content in life. At least, not that I've found. But lately, I've been getting this really great feeling. One of genuine family, and home. It's not something I've felt in my adult life, that I can think of. I guess I'm just really feeling blessed.

I have been working the past few hours on updating my website, which is for my kennel, Red Rose Kennels. (The address, in care you're curious, is redrosekennel.net.) I haven't really kept it up to date, so I spent some time doing that, and putting up some information about Molly. Adam and I were talking last night, and we're thinking of continuing the kennel, after all.

He's sitting across the room from me in my favorite chair. Ok, it may be our favorite chair... And he just... he just is so amazing. He's moved so far to be with us, and has repaired a fracture I didn't realize coursed through my life. We're a family. Somehow this is more alive than I remember being in years. I feel more grounded and content.

I am blessed by so many wonderful people in my life. Makenna, my mom and dad, Ryan, Nikki... all my friends and some truly awesome colleagues. These people have shown me show much.

So, on this encroaching evening, with the quiet noises of a household around me, I'll be thankful.
