I wrote a different post last night, but I don't have it in me to publish it. I'm in an apathetic, nothing is exciting, blah kind of mood. The thing is that there are a lot of exciting things going on today. I just can't seem to pick myself up out of this low.
I will spend the day at the kids' school. It promises to be a day full of celebration of achievements and overall sharing of what they have accomplished...Oh Lord, if I start crying now, I will be a sobbing mess when I get there! Afterwards, we will head to the airport together to pick up my son, who will be home for the weekend. We will run our first race together tomorrow.
These things are exciting! They merit joyful anticipation! I hope my mood will change today. I know the kids have a way of bringing out the best in me. It's not fair to lay this heavy burden upon them, but for today they will raise me up.
And they will not even know how helpful they are (appropriately so).
ReplyDeleteChildren help their parents as they get older and parents help their children. It is symbiotic, and in a real truly loving relationship you are there for one another. Your kids love you, and their love is what you should hold onto. I send you my love also, from me to you. MMS
