I could've slept in today, but...

I would have missed out on the moment of peace that I am getting listening to the rain, drinking my cup of coffee and writing. Over the past few weeks, Aiden has been waking me up. Not really, but he’s been pretty much waking up the same time as me and it has been stressful. I forgot how important these moments were of peace and quiet. You know, you get them sometimes when they are napping, but it’s not enough. To have the 2 hours or so to myself on a Saturday morning is amazing. It allows me to think, plan and to just be. There’s no entertaining the little person who runs my life. No telling him to stop or sit down. No wondering if he’s writing on the walls. Just me, peace and quiet and the rain. You never realize how much you appreciate these moments in motherhood until they were long overdue.

As I finish this short post, someone has awakened, joined me and demanded Barney.

Have a great day y’all!
