Project 52; Week 31/32 Busy Can Be Therapeutic

Oh baby girl, we try so hard to have a balance and to have all the answers.
But truly sometimes there isn’t an answer and sometimes we fall short of having it all figured out.
This time a year is always hectic and short on time.
I honestly almost missed doing this project for a second week, but your Daddy asked what happened to it!
I honestly haven’t had time to think about anything other then your immediate needs and work.
I love my job, and I love that it allows me to stay home with you.
But your mama is a determined one.
I set goals and I work like a dog to make it happen.
I LOVE having multiple projects on my plate at once.
Busy is therapeutic to me.
But I know by looking at this photo alone, that this time is precious.
You’re already looking so much older to me then just two month ago.
I think instead of wishing for you to stay this age, I wish I could just BE in this moment, fully and without reaching for the next moment.
Is that even possible?
You will grow, things will change, life will go on, it’s up to me to decide if I want to live fully in this very moment.
Will I breath into each moment with ease and love?
It’s a lesson I’m learning over and over.
I guess God just keeps dishing out wake up calls until you finally learn.
Maybe it’s a life time of learning the lesson…
It’s so easy in today’s world to take a moment for granted.
We’re constantly bombarded with things.
I’m sure it’ll only get worse as you get older.
Can I make a pledge to you baby girl?
I promise to be your mama first and foremost. I promise that work and household tasks will never come before you.
I promise to parent with love.
And I promise to give myself a huge dose of grace, because no one is perfect.
I’m bottling up a million memories that will forever be held in my heart.
xoxo – Your Mama
