6:30 am. Avery at the piano. Kal trying to burn our house down. . . oh. . .I mean helping Scott get the fire going in the wood stove. I love these mostly quiet mornings, I love how still mornings are. I love that I haven't screwed up as a parent yet. I love that, for the most part, the kids are happy and want to sit on our laps, perhaps cuddle a bit, before they have to start getting ready.
My favorite is Wednesday. We all leave the house at the same time. Scott and I to work. Avery and Kal to school. Lincoln to daycare. I love the camaraderie. Although we may not want to leave the house, we do so as a family.
The mornings are when we try to get our scripture reading done and family prayers said. It doesn't happen 100% of the time but, we make an effort and with any luck our kiddos will see it. With any luck they will notice the difference on the days those 2 most important things don't happen and help us remember in the future. In the mornings I remember that I love being a mom/wife and more importantly I love being a mom to Avery, Kal, Lincoln and a wife to Scott.
