I wanted to post something profound; something deep and meaningful. But my brain is like jello and I've drawn a blank, except for some strange and random thoughts (which I usually try and keep to myself).
1. teenagers sometimes seem like God's way of getting back at us for past mistakes
2. flies in late October! it's like a plague or something
3. strawberry marshmallows are surprisingly good
4. Chloe is not old enough to be 3 years old tomorrow
5. why is Thanksgiving "turkey day", but Halloween isn't "pumpkin day", or "candy day"?
6. I get tired so much easier than when I was 23.... it isn't fair
7. the Columbia Basin gets 300 days of sunshine a year... why do we seem to get the 65 days of gloom all in a row?
8. laundry is eternal
9. a child of any age can say the word "mom" 34,394,182 times a day
10. it's only 7:06, and I wish it was bedtime
Observations on life and learning with my family of nine. Thinking "out loud" in writing is how I deal with my crazy life! My greatest hope is that my musings make sense to someone besides myself, and that through them you'll find comfort, joy, strength, a good laugh, inspiration, or whatever else you're needing. My passion is empowering others to see the genius and divinity within themselves, and others.
This may not be profound, but it made me smile! I hear you!
ReplyDeleteI liked all your thoughts, but the one that stands out the most at this moment is: without hearing "mommy" 34 million times a day your life would be too quiet and empty.every once in awhile when you get older you will wish to hear it once or twice a day again.
