SIMPLE HAPPY: THEY TURNED OUT GOOD

Know what made my heart overflow to burstin' this weekend? Seeing my grown kids so happy!

Austin and his sweetie, Areej
  • seeing them both so enthusiastic about their careers, loving what they do, but not making it the be-all and end-all of their lives
  • seeing them each with a close circle of friends who enrich their lives and truly care about their well-being
  • seeing them so passionate about some of the things that are really important to me as well, like growing some of their own food, and cooking and eating real food
  • seeing them so intelligent and caring, interested in what's going on in the wider world, and not just in what affects them personally
  • seeing how much they enjoy each others company now (you should have seen them fight when they were little!), and that they still like hanging out with their old parents
  • best of all, seeing them each with someone wonderful in their lives, someone who actually loves and enjoys spending time with their own families, and who truly gets them, and appreciates them exactly as they are

What more could a gal ask for?
