Today's been good but tough all at the same time. Brian has been off for almost a week (with a few interruptions from work, but not too many) and he is headed back to regular days tomorrow. We were driving back from spending the afternoon wading in a creek with the boys and I felt the cloud of life demands starting to descend. Brian typically has Mondays off, but the other 6 days belong to his job. There is flexibility to some point, but some veeeerrrrry long days with veeeerrrrry early mornings. VBS is next week which means Brian won't even have his day off. We've had almost a week in a row of dinner as a family and a whole weekend together. All this was swirling through my head as we rode along in the car today. Of course, the more contemplative I got, the louder the boys got. The noise from the backseat was deafening. I kept turning around to see what was causing certain screams or thumps or laughs. Finally, Joseph said in a low voice, "Elijah, every time Mom turns around, she does NOT have a smile on her face." THAT made me smile....
:) Thanks for bringing me out of myself for a laugh, boys.
