I found this picture when I was going through my digital photo archives. We were at a cousins birthday party watching children commit mayhem on a pinata. What a happy day!
It was 2008. I was only changing one toushy while the other toushy kept nudging me in the belly. Truman was realizing Kao Fu wasn't the boogy man after all and Uncle Jason had no idea that life with two boys was about to get CRAZEEE!! Things always seem hard when I'm in the moment and until it becomes a memory is when I realize how uncomplicated life was.
Raising three kids, managing their schedules, and fulfilling all their needs is not always a beautifully landscaped picnic but it is certainly bountiful...and the best time of my life. That's what the senior citizens tell me at the market. And they must know something I don't know yet.
I have to remember to cherish all the little bits and pieces of my day before they turn into distant memories. Who knows when life will REALLY get complicated!
Happy Friday!
