Just not quite the same

Yesterday morning the boys finished their breakfast and got down to play. I found myself alone at the table, next to the open window, feeling the cool morning breeze and listening to the birds.

I wished for a cup of coffee to linger over.

But to get up and make it would have spoiled the lingering feeling, so I sat for just a moment and then went on with my day.

As soon as I felt the breeze this morning, I started making the coffee.

Ha! I'd be ready this time!

But this morning, the boys finished their breakfast and hopped down....

..... and ran to the window to watch the action.....

..and instead of the beautiful sound of morning birds....

....all I could hear was the garbage truck thumping and grinding.




Maybe I'll try lingering tomorrow. :)

Linger long enough and you'll get your wish. But dont linger too long or you might get a blue mouthed baby again!!

Something crazy always happens when I multi-task...like today I left my keys in Arkansas after trying to load the car, say goodbye to everyone, and change a diaper at the same time...oops!
