So Fridays are some of my craziest days. Oh let's face it, everyday is a crazy day but Fridays are particularly crazy. There's the usual morning of getting ready, eating and what-not. Then we go to music makers for an hour or so. Then home for laundry and house cleaning (I do token cleaning throughout the week but save the massive cleaning for Fridays.) Then, if I've been particularly lazy during the week I do the grocery shopping.
Well today as I was sweeping the main room floor Ebby decided he wanted to help me. He took some of the laundry, dipped it in the toilet, and then started wiping up the bathroom floor with it. Dirty toilet water all over the floor - SO gross. I took him out of the room and began to sanitize when he ran back in with the broom and headed for the wet floor. Argh.
Of course that was the perfect time to feed Autumn, or so she thought. I must have been really neglecting her because she cried a lot during and after the feeding. I thought maybe it was her diaper so I placed her down in front of me and started to change her diaper. As I was taking off her diaper she reached down and grabbed my index finger. I stopped to look at her and the moment I did she smiled. One of her whole body smiles with a gasp. So cute. The whole day was worth it. All the craziness. All the work and rough days are totally worth it when I can sit back for one moment and see my beautiful children.
Some days I need a couple (a lot) of moments.
