A few weeks ago, after a full day, making dinner, and
cleaning up, I was exhausted. I
wobbled into the living room and laid on the floor. It only took two minutes for both the babies to come
charging at me, climbing on and over me; in two more minutes, the big boys were
rolling around too, and in two more, Kevin was there too.
It turned into tickling, laughing, and playing for at least
twenty minutes. We were having so
much fun; I hardly realized it was time for bed. As all of us caught our breath, I sent the boys off to get
ready for bed, and then changed the babies into their pajamas. Once everyone was settled in their
beds, and Kevin and I were sitting comfortably, he looked over at me and said,
“That was fun, huh?”
It is pretty easy to get lost in the mundane tasks of our
days, and forget to laugh and play.
I think we would all be pleasantly surprised at what happens when we get
on the floor.
