We had a long day (Brandon was out of town too which sometimes makes it feel longer) and we missed nap time. By late afternoon Ruby fell asleep on the bed instead her crib and for a moment things stopped. The other girls were in the other room and I decided to just sit with her for a little bit and be still. I'm usually going from one thing to another trying to beat the clock and get as much stuff done as I need or can these days. But just pausing and being still was nice. I was reminded of how much I actually like being still. I remember days when I would have hours to myself and maybe even sometimes being bored! That seems so funny to me now. I imagine with a blink of an eye these kids will be all grown up doing their thing, and then Brandon and I will have tons of time on our hands again wondering where the time went. I best enjoy it while I can.
A late nap is better than no nap.
