Maybe I live too much in the past when I write these entries, but I think it's easy for us to look back on things that happened in prior years and see something interesting or funny or teaching about them--something we hadn't noticed as we were living those moments. As a mom, my days now are similar, since life is ruled by schedules, but I'm sure that in a few years, when the kids are in school and life has changed again, I'll look back on this past and realize it was so much fuller than I ever knew.
