Summer chores...
Do kids really do these?
Clean wood floors...
Impossible summer expectation!
July & August...
Hotter than June? Why did we move south?
Everything "fun" costs money!
Kids are "bored".
"Hold me Mommy...
I say "I don't have time".
A power outage occurred last night.
Family gathered, talked, laughed, and cuddled.
Perfect summer moment.
(...do you see the dust on that glass!?) ...it doesn't matter (I will say that three times and take a deep breath...) This summer has seen me being BUSY! My head hits the pillow and I am asleep in minutes - and that is not like me, I read books and usually have a hard time turning my mind off. The heat and "high" expectations of house cleaning have been making me crabby. With the lights out and the candles flickering, and everyone gathered, it was very peaceful. Held my "baby" boy and truly relaxed.
We must remember to turn everything off at times and just "chill". Be together. I think I will invest in a few candle supplies...
This if for "Friday Flash 55" (a story in 55 words) which I will link to at 8pm tonight.
