Such a great list, V. I can just feel how much you love your kids, hubbie and family when I read these posts. I totally agree that having an amazing and engaged husband makes life so much easier, even on those really tough days. Tyler's done a few "runs" to get me something late in the evening when the last thing I want to do is leave the house. You're looking great, btw. I hope you've been able to get your workouts/runs in. It's so tough with kids and time and energy.
