At life long friend H's house today, we were joyfully celebrating her 5 yr old baby girl's bday. After a week of sunny weather, mother nature blessed us with misty, yucky, cold weather. Hence, 12 kids indoors. Generally, our kids play beautifully and we barely hear from them. Today for the first 1/2 hr or so there was a bit of wrestling, running, yelling etc.
After taking a turn at keeping the peace, I returned to the kitchen. H asked me if I would like some coffee. Keurig ready to go, she had filled three baskets with choices; caffeinated, decaf or cocoa. How very Martha.
We decided at a party with 12 kids indoors the baskets should really offer prozac, zoloft or another happy 'fully loaded' cocktail for moms to relax by. To heck with the coffee.
What's in your basket?
- In (Not So) Perfect Balance
- Our life is full of wonderful, chaotic, blessed, hysterical, insane, magical, sad, scary, sweet, mind boggling, moments. While balancing life with 3 cherubs, parents, sisters, BIL, In-laws, 1 teaching career, and many good friends; I find that our life is moving far toooo fast. It is important to cherish and record the moments as we consistently try to balance our scale (God forbid I make a photo album)! MB
