Tank full

It's been a good week. Lots happening. School stuff, home stuff, work stuff. Stuff. Pool stuff. Life stuff. Feeling bone weary stuff. Church stuff. Friend stuff. Family stuff. Like I said, a good week.

Full, alive, real, messy. And that is life. Moments when you get to snuggle against the person you share life with. Moments when you have to be brave and persevere in things despite the 4.30am wake ups due to kids or stressing about the choices you made the day before. And then the celebrations of tasks finished, of new seasons starting, old seasons ending. Some not really celebrations as they whizz past before you can stop.

My watch tells me to breathe every hour or so. I am trying to stop. Breathe. Whisper "hello God". See what is around me. Right now I am thankful for the week that has been. For fierce small hugs, "just one more question" and shared smiles. Glimpses of glory in everyday things and people. Breathe. Glimpse. Breathe.

Thankful.
