Every Week

When given this theme for today my mind was flooded with all the things I do every week and every day. It’s amazing how sometimes life can become just marking time by completing lists, tasks, and events. 

  
Mondays we do this. Tuesdays we do that. How do we make moments that matter? 

I was talking with a dear friend today about grabbing those moments when we can. I love how having a four year old can be an opportunity to have more of those.  This morning Henry was listening to one of his favorite records, the Little Blue Brontosaurus. When it ended he yelled out to me as I was cleaning, “It’s done! Time for a painting project!” I could’ve made excuses and redirected him, like I do so much of the time. Today though I wanted to be less about the everyday and every week and more in the right now.
