I was truly hoping that as JBM got older, I would have more time in the evening. NOT! As of last night, I have decided that I am back in elementary school....the only difference, this time I know what is coming. YES, YES, I know it will only get worse and the issues will only get bigger but, if it is even possible, I have less time now than I did when JBM was a baby and he needed me 24 hours a day.
I also thought that if I was ever going to go back to school, it would be for something fun like interior design.....not basic math, spelling and writing. But you know what? I would not trade this time for anything since I know it is fleeting and we are stuck together for an hour (sometimes more) every day....homework usually ends with some nice conversation. That is the best part.
Thanks for the flashback! Yes, the end of homework was always the best - chatting about the day and life. Now I get a text or an e-mail! And an occasional phone call.
ReplyDeleteIt is sooooooo fleeting. Before you know it you'll be looking back asking yourself where the time went.
