Day After Day...

So much of motherhood (and parenting in general) can feel so repetitive. It's a struggle for me to find joy in the daily tasks, to not let exhaustion cloud the beauty of the moment. On this day I spent time with just my two kids and Dave. It was an hour where no one else in the world mattered and we were fully present in our surroundings..soaking up these precious moments with Mae and Owen. They both continue to teach me how to let go and embrace them as they are, embrace what life brings you. Being content with less, running around less, and realizing what you thought you wanted to do really doesn't bring fulfillment are a few other things I am being taught. Thank goodness we have these little ones in our lives to bring perspective to our complicated adult worlds!
