In life there are seasons. Just as the leaves change and the weather changes, life also ebbs and flows. I remember the days of little munchkins..biting, fighting, constant maintenance. I thought those days would never end. It was completely exhausting and somedays I didn't know how I survived!
Those days have passed now. I'm in a new season. It's quieter now. Things are much slower. I only do the laundry and the dishes about once a week.
But there's perks too. Last night, my grown son came home and took me to dinner and a movie. He's the perfect gentleman. He opened the door for me and delighted me with his conversation. It was a wonderful evening.
I would never have pictured these days back then. But they are wonderful! I'm really enjoying my grown up kids.
Hang in there, moms and dads. Soon the blistering heat of summer will be over and the coolness of fall will begin. It happens so quickly too.
