all they wanted to do was take a shower with their clothes on. they begged from the moment they woke up, “it will be fun mama!” and “it will keep us warm mama!”
we compromised.
they showered in their undies and i realized that sometimes you have to give in, to survive the day as you count down the hours and minutes until daddy gets home. we’ve sort of had that kind of month (or so) since quinn came along. i suppose that’s how many a mama feels with 3 little ones. going from cloud nine bliss to chaos in under 40 seconds flat.
but these moments, the ones in between – when baby is napping and undies are showering, i find peace. and i drink it in. they see me smile and we make an incredible memory.
and that’s enough for me.
