Is home just another place where there are unmet expectations, lists, work and exhaustion? What does being home purposefully really mean?
How about a little flashback 10 years? If you love country music then you probably loved this song from 2002. I still love it and turn it up every time it comes on the radio. Even if it is a little cheesy, I never get tired of country cheese…
What a great song! It makes me feel good about my habit of putting more than chores on my list, like praying and exercising. This past weekend Bobby and I made a list of ways to work on spending more quality time together as a family. Here's that list: Pray Liturgy of the Hours, pray a Sunday Rosary, encourage each other to work out 3-4 times a week, go hiking locally during the week and in Shenendoah a few times a month, prepare for a Christmas party, and Bobby is suppose to help me out more with chores.
My own "list" of important things to do includes praying, exercising, spending those extra, special moments with Gracie, calling Mom, Ellen, Megan, and other friends, writing letters, going to Mass, being with Bobby, sewing and crafting, playing with the cat, writing blog posts. These are the things that are best about being home, and far more important than the decor or chores.
