As always I felt my spirits lift. "Miracles" reminded me of a time one of my boys who was showing adolesent problem behaviors came into the house knowing he was in trouble. I, unlike you, didn't ask the right questions to get the giggly response. I had no questions and no words. I just hugged. Then I got a hug back and a smile. It was a golden moment and still is. I hope lots of moms read your account of "Miracles" and remember to hug and giggle through the harried and hurried moments of Mom life. The results are the best. Thanks Hi Kathy,

It was a Kodak moment. No really that is great it's so wonderful to see our kids "get it" and realize that everything we are doing is not in vain. Happy New Year How sweet! It was a Kodak moment.

We were packing for our trip on the day after Christmas so everything was still "up" when we got back. I spent New Years Day doing laundry and all day yesterday taking down the Christmas stuff. But...things are mostly back to normal again. And I love this "calm after the storm", don't you? I’m right there with you.
