Sometimes there is just not enough time for life.
Take last weekend’s Risk game for example.
Two of my teens and I started the game while Friday evening’s dinner was cooking.
We still played after dinner.
Then it was a movie…
Saturday we all slept in, then ran around a little… grocery store, etc.
And played Risk in between trips – it seemed every time I came back into the living room,
there they were – my teens, sitting at the Risk board… waiting for me.
and telling me “It’s your turn mom!”
In between laundry washing, dinner cooking, movie watching…. school work
“It’s your turn mom!”
Saturday came and went.
And then Sunday, there was the early service at church.
Then re-cooking leftovers, and then school work
“It’s your turn mom!”
After youth it was roasted chicken and fixings… and after dinner,
in the living room
laptop on my lap – reading the PDFs of my assigned weekly school readings….
“It’s your turn mom!”
Well, today is Tuesday – the game is still on the coffee table…
I’ve tried to loose – and I’m not loosing – although my son is certainly in a world domination role right now.
When I walk in from work it will be… “It’s your turn mom!”
and I suppose, again, after dinner it will be some more… “Its your turn mom!”
I am trying to be happy about this – it’s a good thing – my kids – who I think are wonderful…
must like me too!
I know your great, always have since you were born Pam ! I love the pics you sent ! Such beautiful children !
