Frozen


Stillness. I am enjoying being in my thoughts before the girls get out of school. Then the craziness of our afterschool schedule begins. Frozen in this quiet stare of the gorgeous sky. I am at peace with sitting alone in the car. There was a time, I needed to fill my time with busy work and conversations with others. These days, I look for as much quiet time.

Fifteen minutes later, Mommy mode kicks in and I'm ready for the week. Luckily the snacks in the car come in handy and we head to the local library for a project that my child fails to mention (I had to have a conversation about being responsible to plan ahead).The girls ravish the snacks. Always hungry after school. Hearing about their day from school and share the newest news. I love these moments when the kids share their day without me having to probe them. These are times that I like to keep frozen in my mind. Hearing the conversations of the girls and there's no arguements or fighting.
Capturing a glimpse of the everyday moments that I am thankful for and wishing they wouldn't pass by so quickly. Both babes of mine and born to my friends are blooming into these lovely ladies. Our future. I have the  opportunity to see them grow and help mold them to be the responsible adults.
