Never really alone.

I ordered Chinese food delivery last night. I don't love Chinese food, but I was home in my pajamas and my girl was getting ready for bed and my refrigerator was empty, so it seemed like a good idea.

I was sitting on my living room floor, enjoying my dinner, but I was thinking about how much less pitiful this picture would be if I were sitting across from someone I love. My little living room floor picnic wanted a companion, and it made me sad.

Then I opened my fortune cookie, and it read, "You look happy and proud."

It's true. I've never been happier, and I've never been prouder. Even though I'm finding myself eating Chinese takeout alone on my living room floor on a Friday night, this season of my life is sweet.

I'm thankful.
