inthemiddle

woke up this morning to a lovely sound. crawling out of bed, i stumbled quietly through the hallway to only discover my family all laughing and making breakfast together. i rubbed my hands over my tired eyes and felt content. my old brother sitting at the table drinking coffee and chatting with his beautiful girlfriend and my parents flirted between each pancake flip. and just outside and through the patio doors i heard my cousins playing guitar. they we're sitting on the deck, swinging their feet over the edge. walking through i sat down beside them as they play covers of Billy Joel and Jackson Browne. i honestly love mornings like this. i love how musical and happy my family gets on sunday mornings before church. my life is perfect.
