I mean reheated homemade pizza and bowls of homemade granola with fresh cucumber, red pepper, and carrot sticks for supper busy. Pistachios for dessert busy. (We don't do reheated for supper.)
It's been a whirlwind of a week. There have been a few days when I can actually count the number of hours I have been in the house between the hours of 7:30am and 7:30pm on less than one hand.
I know it's just a season for us.
Yet, it has been insane. Partly it's my fault. Partly it's the weather (isn't it incredible!). Partly it's the fact that we have joined a new program (details later) and the kids and I are making the best of a great thing. Partly it's due to my working more than usual, due to an unexcused absence at work in late August....and the Powers-That-Be not yet able to find a replacement. And, partly it's because I am trying to enjoy the boys fully and daily, while passing the "hurry up and wait" time of this thing called Adoption.
But, while sitting at my computer this morning enjoying a few quiet moments and a cup of coffee before the hurricane of the day I looked out the window above me.
I was reminded, in the peace of this pink sunrise, to enjoy the tranquility of the moment. The photo doesn't come near the realm of capturing the moment and serene calmness I felt, but it was bliss. And 60 seconds later the pink was gone. Replaced by a blue-ish, cloudy haze.Don't forget to pause for your Sunrise.
Because before you know it, the colours of the moment will change.
It would be a shame to miss out.
