18.31

they are still sick

getting over the yuckies means

lounging in our pj’s until lunch,

lots of extra snuggles,

and boxes of kleenex.

it means praying they nap

so they can feel better quick…

17.31

it’s been a long week

E’s been sick,

and now it’s T’s turn

we’ve been on house arrest

i’m going crazy,

but they just keep on

no pause in the play,

in the laughter,

in the noise

still sweet as sin to one another

i love that they’ll teach each other

so many things,

like how to clap…

halfway there.

pretty morning sun,

more playtime

in what should be my dining room

wouldn’t change this little space,

where sometimes we feel like we are bursting

at the seams…

it is home.

14.31

there must be more than a hundred of them,

little CARS everywhere.

hours of entertainment,

mornings full of “vroom” and “crash.”

playtime, together time, my favorite time.
