I’m not very fond of waiting.
Right now, I feel like my life is at a standstill. At a halt.
I thought our house would sell very quickly, but it doesn’t look like that’s going to happen. At least not yet.
What’s funny is, I’ve been in this same situation before…waiting for a house to sell…stuff packed…waiting….trying to keep things straightened up all the time…not doing projects I want to do…not decorating…..just waiting….
And I’m not handling it any better this time than last time!
I watch my little boy from behind. He couldn’t care less about hurrying down the trail. He’s content to poke around, stopping every few feet to examine the grass and dig in the dirt.
I think there’s a lesson for me here.
He and Jake look about the same size since Jake is so big. Jake is the opposite–at a dead run all the time, falling down a hundred times, pushing his way through any obstacle to grab what he wants. I look at him and see Megan. It is ironic since his parents are both so laid back. Waiting is so hard. Keeping 3 kids stuff neat is near impossible. It could be a while with the current market. I think you are so creative with your lessons for your children. Jake knows most of the alphabet, numbers, all the colors, reads a few words and follows no orders unless he wants to and can run way faster than me!
