Currently {Life in March}

Holy smokes. It’s been a crazy couple of weeks my friends.

Mostly good crazy, but crazy none the less.

We’ve tried so hard to not fill every second of our lives with things to do, to allow for some down time as a family. With so many opportunities for wonderful ways to spend our time, it’s so tempting to want to do it all, but I know how important those quiet moments are too.

Honestly, we’ve done a really good job of maintaining that balance between too much and not enough. But the last couple of weeks have just totally gotten away from us. They’ve taken on a life of their own and we’re just going along for the ride, finding as much joy as we can in all the busy. Because really, these weeks don’t come around much anymore and my gosh, how lucky are we to have so many wonderful things to fill our time with!

And so, right in the middle of all this busy, we’re counting our many, many blessings.

Like the most amazing first hockey season with the most incredible bunch of kiddos, parents and coaches…

And the opportunities I have with my flexible work schedules substitute teaching and blogging to be able to spend time in Carson’s classroom.

And all sorts of extra time with family and friends.

And so, as we rush from place to place, keeping busy from dawn to dusk, I’ll just keep reminding myself how lucky we are to live such full lives.
 
 

And now, here’s a quick update about where I am {currently}…
