A little slice of Heaven

Jason stayed home from work today. He wasn't feeling too great and hung out on the couch for most of the day being crawled on by babies. I got a LOT of cleaning done however because he was able to keep the kids occupied. Tonight after I put Emma to bed around 7:30 (she was exhausted now that she crawls all over), Jason started a fire in the fireplace. It was a chilly day and we both commented about how it smelled like fall outside. I tucked Emma into her crib, and snuck out to the den where Hunter and daddy were cuddled up watching Micky and whispered "Hey guys!! Come here!" and they snuck over into the livingroom where the fire was, and together the three of us snuggled on the couch watching the fire burn. It was a precious moment that I want burned (pun intended) into my memory forever. Hunter was still, and not wiggly, and Jason had his arm protectively around both of us. It felt like Heaven. This was my family! It was a sweet time for Jason and I to give Hunter that special attention he needed. Hunter had one hand in daddy's and one hand in mine and kept giggling at us. We told him how much we loved him, and even snuck a few kisses while Hunter told us what colors her saw in the fire. We determined that every color of the rainbow was in the fire. :) What a special start to Fall!
