September 13, 2010 – Instead of going crazy…

It was that time of day this afternoon.  I was tired.  The kids were tired and all over the place.  It was still an hour left before my husband was home and I could feed them and move on with our day.  It was that time of day when things usually have the potential to go downhill.

Instead… when all else fails, let ‘em run!

We went outside…  breathed in some early fall air.  I cut the grass, which always improves my mood… the organization, the lines, the evenness of it all.  The kids rode bikes.   We played soccer around the tall pine trees and chased each other in the yard. 

And so, instead of going crazy… we went for some fresh air!   Instead of going crazy, we laughed and played, played and ran, hugged and smiled.

We were all much better and far happier for it.  What a great decision… taking control of the crazy!
