I had an appointment this evening. I was dressed and ready for it this afternoon.
Then I went outside with the kids… just to sit on the steps while they played.
But then we started playing word games in sidewalk chalk… and got dusty thinking together.
After that we decided to take a few bike rides up and down the little hill by my house… and we got dirty playing together.
Then for a challenge, we got the tools out… and we got silly working on things together.
We decided to remove the training wheels from a baby bike, instantly transforming it into a big girl’s bike…. and got sweaty learning to ride together.
And then… finally… I was almost late to my appointment and showed up with wet hair (because a shower was necessary)… and it was all worth it…
Because we got to share moments living together. And that. Is what it’s all about. Enjoying. Sweating. Playing. Being. Living. Completely.
