My day off was a gorgeous sunny day.
Swimming in a pool of perfect temperature, gliding through the water, splashing with children.
Having homemade "ice pops" outside on the patio, from smoothies I had frozen in popsicle molds.
Checking email once, to find nothing controversial.
Talking with friends on the phone.
Children going to bed easily.
Watching a movie with my husband on the couch.
These are the moments I hold onto for when the stars don't align. If only every day off could be like this one!
From your mouth (or typing, at least) to God's ears. May your life be filled with peaceful, tender, gentle moments and may you always be embraced by friends and engulfed in love.
ReplyDeleteI second that. Beautiful blessing, mom.
