Today

Occasionally, Luke will get a text from me while he’s at work that says something like, “On my way to Mexico. Be back in 3 years” or “Dropping the kiddos off at the office and heading to the spa.” Today was one of those days (although this happens much less frequently than when I had 4 littles under 4).

I wrestled with the two year old all during Mass this morning (what did you expect from a two year old at Mass without any other adult, you might ask? It’s a valid question) Then we came home and spent an hour cleaning the basement, only to find all the pillows and blankets pulled out of the closet and the cushions off the couch and chairs ten minutes later. And then the normal Mom, I spilled the lemonade all over and Mom, Patrick is playing with my toy and I had it first! and He started it! and I hate this meal.

Then I walked into this…

 

Patrick was “reading” to Leo sitting on his lap.

 

We are so blessed.
