We have been incredibly busy as we manage all the ins and outs of moving. It seems for every action-item crossed off the to-do list, twenty more eagerly pop up to fill its place. While I have been outwardly focused on all these necessary tasks, a part of me is aware that taking time to smell the roses with my boys is essential.
In the midst of this craziness I am making an effort every day to be present for them and to keep up with many of our traditions. We have made it to the pool, the movies and for ice cream. These are the pillars of our summer.
One day, as I contemplated the complicated logistics of our schedule, I had the strangest thought. A Target run was first-up and I actually wanted my boys to go with me.
Well, that was a first.
I scanned my body for illness. Then I did a quick mental-health status check.
I seemed to be functioning ‘normally’.
Was this what end-of-days feels like?
I don’t know.
I do know that my boys are so much fun! They have the ability to entertain me while on errands and sometimes, they are actually helpful!
Truthfully, T.Puzzle is still a bit of a loose cannon when we are out and about, but I can take it. I survived the terrible twos, threes and fours…
Twice.
