I love this small town of ours.
(Fun fact: this is the longest place I have ever stayed put in my entire life. Let's shoot for forever, God!)
The kids are finally both old enough that going to football games are actually fun and not "where's my kid?- did he fall in between the bleachers?- no,we aren't going to the bathroom again." stressful.
Half the team/band/cheerleaders are a part of the youth group.
The stands are full of church families.
Hutch marches from one group of people to another, entertaining them with his knowledge of dinosaurs, cool voices, fighting bad guys, etc.
Emmerson begs for candy the entire time and asks me all her football questions.
(I answer confidently, because, naturally, I totally know what's going on.)
We're smack dab in the middle of our community, surrounded by stand-in family, and I can't help but be filled with joy.
I love this small town of ours.
