Friday means it's time for Finding Beauty, a wonderful new event hosted by Claudia at Dipity Road. We get to share the beauty that we see around us every day. Whether it be a glorious sunset, the smile of a child, or a beloved pet, there is always beauty to be found if we'll only take the time to look.As many of you know, our darling daughter Cait is home for the Spring semester while she student teaches. There have been some adjustments made, getting used to having an adult daughter move back home after having been on her own for 3 1/2 years.
Groceries: Double
Gas bill: Tripled
Trips to the outlet mall for "professional looking clothes": Tenfold increase - I wear scrubs every day!
Seeing this one afternoon:
PRICELESS!
Hope you all have a beautiful day too. Make sure to stop by and visit Claudia and visit some wonderful posts about the beauty all around us.

Beautiful Post Kathy...
Kitty is happy dear Daughter is back also. Who would have thought? I love it. So many pictures and moments are so priceless. I thank you for sharing with me tonight.
I am so thrilled that you loved my post. I am always looking at my hands, my kids and my grandkids. We have the same hands and it amazes me. I am not a great writer, but I love writing my thoughts. I am happy to share them with you.
Take a picture of your daughters and your hands together. Hands sure can tell a story can't they?
Have a beautiful Friday and thank you again for sharing. My hubby laughed at the picture too. Our critters do not know they are critters.
Country hugs and much love...Sherry

It's a blessing to have our adult children back again, isn't it? If only for a little while... ::Jill
Priceless indeed....they are with us for such a short time. We are so thankful that both of our girls live close...about 45 minutes away....makes it all okay.
How funny and lovable! Glad she's home, Kathy. Sheesh - utility bills have been out of sight. (and she doesn't even live with me! LOL) xoxo Nancy

I went through the same things when my daughter moved back in for awhile after living on her own. We just about drove each other crazy, but then she got married and I missed her so much. I don't think her younger brother missed her at all though!
