Just Be.
Spring is on it's way (despite the fact that we are forecasted to get 1-3 inches of snow tomorrow morning). It's been a beautiful week and we've been taking full advantage of this by playing outside as much as possible. The fresh air has been great.
But it's also been exhausting. And I'm still not really geared up for the increase of activity that I feel spring bringing. And honestly, neither is Aaron. He has been going nonstop for the last several days, and yesterday he just crashed (after lots of tears and tantrums). Today I was going to run a bunch of errands but I cancelled all of that and decided to give the two of us the day off from "doing." We've been at the house all morning, just playing, reading, building legos, and hanging out. And it's been very nice, not a tear shed or a scream yelled (by either one of us, which sadly was not the case for either of us yesterday).
It's nice to push away the busy every once and while and take time to appreciate just being.
