Returning to normal...

Normal in this house is a little girl dressed in a princess outfit.

Normal is everyone working together to make the house run-- cooking, cleaning, laundry-- we all pitch in to help.

Normal is seeing seasonal decorations up on any surface that will hold still long enough to hold them.

I have not been normal for almost a year... but it feels really good to be back in a routine and to make our house really feel like our home again!

My poor husband even thanked me for asking him to lug in the 4th of July bins-- that is not normal :)
