Today our youngest spent quite a lot of time on the roof. Fortunately the cat likes the roof too, so the two kept each other company and commiserated about "History books" and "sticking things in" and "mean parents who won't let me play computer games" and "I thought I had done all my work but I haven't" and more.
The cat was infinitely more sympathetic than the parents.
I really hope I don't crack a tooth in this process of unlockdown. It's come close several times. And then some kind soul sends me a meme about some fruit that is being born in me right now, and I must admit, I'd like to take aim and send that fruit back at the sender with some oomph.
Faith and fruit and life. Darn messy, trampled, picked up again, examined, real. I simply LOVE my friends who are real too in the clutter and chaos and holy moments of being alive with children in this time and this age, navigating this minute, this day and this life.
You know who you are.
Thanks for throwing a life preserver of sanity and a smile to me today!
