i know when mother theresa said this quote, she probably did not mean carpool ... or grocery shopping ... or picking up those little lego bits off the floor that hurt so much when you step on them .... but i think this quote speaks especially well to parents ... new parents ... parents of the very young ... like when you are parent and still trying to get it figured out .... like how to get everyone under the age of three to the pool and back without anyone dying or pooping .... when you are at that stage, it is hard to be cognizant of just how good the ordinary can be .... and how the things that are the chores, really aren't that bad ....
i've matured with my kids ... i can do ordinary things and get why they are important ... or how they are acts of love .... and even revel in them because time seems to be speeding along so quickly ...
how about you? are you in a phase of life where time is flying or creeping? i think it makes a difference on how you view your days ....
