Today Eli had baseball practice. While we are there Liam likes to play on the playground. There is a little hill around the playground. Liam went up and and came tumbling down. He was screaming and totally lost it because he scrapped his leg and got a little bit of a bloody nose. My Pit was that he got hurt but that he also totally freaked out. You would have thought something took over his body his lost it so bad.
Today I had a lot of thoughts about being a mother. One of the thoughts I have had a lot this week in particular is I want to have lots of good memories with my children. I want to play with them and have fun with them. It get frustrated with how tired I get or the day to day things that I really need to get done. I struggle with which is more important in that very moment. Should I really clean this, Does this really have to be done. Then on top of that I am very tired so a nap sounds nice or because I am so tired I may not have as much patience as I would like. I NEVER want to wish my children's life away. Meaning I don't want to wish for them to be older so I have more rest time. I want to enjoy every moment of their existence. I was thinking about how I never want to miss out on their life. I thought how nice it would be to be able to have glimmers of their ages through out my life. Like every Tuesday my kids are like they are now. Then on Fridays it's when they are grown and I am with my grandchildren. How awesome would that be? Just to experiences a period of my life every week. That would be so awesome because then I will never loose this moment. However that can't happen so I get to struggle with should I do this puzzle with Liam, or do the dishes. Should I tickle Lilly or clean the bathroom. Should I play baseball with Eli or make a healthy dinner. I guess I just never want to forget to live in the moment. Enjoy what I have now because in a blink of an eye it will be over and I can NEVER get it back.
Just a regular day at the Ash house.
Mom I didn't break your glasses see you can still wear them.
