My Days

I am seeing my life change right before my eyes.  We are moving out of the little kid stage of life and into bigger kid stuff.  It is a good thing don't get me wrong, just different.  Gone are the simple days of staying home, playing and trying to find things to fill the time until dinner.  Boy did I think those days were long at times.  Ha!  They've got nothing on my days now.  My days are now filled with time in the car and time spent sitting.  I counted up today I spent 5 hours driving kids somewhere or sitting and waiting on kids.  Yes, 5 hours in the car or sitting in a hard chair.  It is a very different kind of long.  But I wouldn't trade it for anything!!  I love seeing my kids thrive at school and in activities.  To do that I have to get them there and wait on them so that is what I will do.  I am thankful that I can do it!  I am excited to see what this new stage of life looks like.  A stage not marked with diapers and playdates but with growing, independent children.  It is going to be great!!
