So today I had to go through withdrawal not having my Miaja and Chase home. I kept seeing their faces as they came through the door after school. I love those little faces.
The door swung open today and I felt a joy
that can simply come only from children.
Without missing a breath a blow-by-blow of the days events roll off of their tongues-simultaneously.
By some miracle-known only to mothers-
I actual hear MOST of the details.
We laugh over some silly things said and I replace the
hair-clip my daughters jabbed up the middle of her hairline-she being
completely oblivious to how "silly" it might have looked.
All the while my son devours any morsel in sight (we actual starve him...j/k).
We lie together on the living room floor surrounded by book orders, school projects, assignments and art. The simple thought comes effortlessly to my mind-
"these are the riches of life".
