Week In The Life 2013 | Tuesday Words + Photos

NUMBER OF PHOTOS FOR TUESDAY | 68 (about half & half)

Today was a whirlwind that began a little before 6am and ended sometime after 10pm.

I chose this week because I knew it was going to mark the beginning of all kinds of new things for each of us. Anna at her new school. Simon starting middle school. Driving a whole lot more. Schedule adjustments. I knew I would be tired. And I am.

It was one of those days when I was reminded again and again how lucky I am that Katie is a part of our lives.

It was one of those days where I missed some photos in the evening. I attended events at Anna's school and the kids were hanging out with Katie and Peter. Katie took the last one shown below when I got home.

It was one of those days with bedtimes that kept extending into the evening. There were tears about a missing light saber and tears about Katie going home.

It was one of those days I wished things would slow down.

It was one of those days I negotiated and asked for help and said yes and said no and advocated for love and supported and felt supported.

Here's a look at our day:

Washing.

Selecting.

Dressing.

Reading.

Rinsing.

Anticipating.

Listening.

Humming.

Growing.

Comparing.

Showering at 2pm.

Breathing.

Calming.

Sharing.

Celebrating (first day at Middle School - 6th grade).

Choosing.

Praying.
