cherish

I CHERISH the 15 minutes between the end of Tres' music class and picking Catfish up from preschool. In 15 minutes I can enjoy a moment of quiet before the craziness of the afternoon begins.

Usually this is because Tres has fallen asleep and is quietly resting in his carseat. I should have warned you that there would be a bad mommy confession in this post ;-). Yes, I leave him in his seat for a few minutes to nap. I stay right with him, but I completely enjoy the few minutes of quiet. While he peacefully snoozes I can pick weeds from the driveway, read my book in the car, or even just sit on the porch and enjoy the sun. No matter what I do, it's a lovely transition time that makes for a much easier afternoon.

You have to appreciate the little things y'know??
