So. Its not been the smoothest week. We have had some HARD days with the kids, where the hours between school and bedtime are incredibly trying and long. They have felt mostly like we just need to survive. Those days are hard for everyone involved. They’re hugely challenging for Brady and I as parents, but they’re also really hard on the kids. It feels bad to not do as well as we’d like. It feels bad to let people down. It feels bad period. Usually, however, we are fortunate enough that we all go to bed lovingly. We’re able to be soft with the kids, resolve all hard or hurt feelings, and send them to bed peacefully. But oof. I do not always feel so peaceful.
Rowan invited me to sit on him last night while we prayed together. Do you think he changed his tune after about ten seconds? 😆
Conveniently, Wavy and Solly do ok together on the days they’re both home 🙂
This morning, Brady and I spent a couple of hours playing music with Carrie. Our town has its local celebration weekend coming up, and we’ve been recruited to play music at the car show again! Now that NONE of us are sick *knocks on wood* we can really get back into it! We’re all really excited for the upcoming event, and it was fun to start preparing for it. And once we split for the day, I spent some time crocheting some towel hangers for the upcoming farmers market I’ve been invited to 🙂
Cute little braid stitch in there, hey? I like these a lot! The worst part of selling items is pricing them tho 🤢 Send help!
The day has been peaceful, and even now, its getting rainy and overcast, and I LOVE that! So I have high hopes for the remainder of the day 💜 I hope there is peace and contentment for the last few hours of the day, for you and me.
