Little Boy Person

A boy's story is the best that is ever told.
-- Charles Dickens

 

I crave the weekends.

 
No urgency of alarm clocks
Sleeping in
Little feet pitter pattering down the hall
Morning snuggles
Footy pajamas
Coffee and cartoons
Cooking breakfast
Messes…yes, I said it
Afternoon walks
Goldfish crackers
Kick ball out front
3 hour naps
Whiskey gingers

Movies as background noise

Baths…ahh baths!

 

But most importantly…the nothing.

…ahh nothing – it’s sacred to me.

Lately we’ve been doing a lot of nothing, something my tired head and heart needs from time to time.

Sometimes, although it may not be favored, I need to shut off and recharge my mommy batteries with my husband and son.

It’s necessary.

So necessary.
