Deceptive

I was sitting here earlier on composing a blog post.

Let's set the scene as it was...

Here I am on this cold winter evening, kids snuggled up in bed, sitting in my warm lounge with the fire roaring, sipping a glass of red wine...

This is kind of what I see in my mind.

But in reality...this is what I see in front of me, one child is asleep, one child is giggling her heart out with her dad down in the bedroom, my fire (complete with ugly safety guard) has almost gone out and the room has cooled, the glass is empty...

But life is good!
