It feels like,
It’s not just getting
Time
To yourself .
It’s having time,
With the right
Frame of mind.
Which is where I fall down.
each haircut
each set of outgrown clothes
each start of a new school year
moves us closer to that thing we dread
our kids growing up
our kids leaving
this is not to depress you
it’s to help you enjoy now
while it’s here
while they are
the past is past
put our mistakes behind us
stop being distracted or too busy
rededicate ourselves — to parenting
our most important job
let us begin afresh, afresh, afresh
for
today is the very last time
they will be this age
again
Paraphrased from Daily Dad
Day 9 Yumo was looking over the back of the sofa, like a meerkat. Tigger and his blanket held tightly. Daddy? Yes Yumo? He makes a kissing noise with his mouth. Good morning Yumo
