The Ups and Downs of Parenting

Last week was hard. Like really hard. I don't know if it was the jet lag, adjusting to being back at home or what, but the kids were being crazy. They were fighting NONSTOP. It was emotionally exhausting on top of the physical exhaustion I felt from the jet lag. It just wasn't good. Then, sometime in the middle of all of the chaos, all was quiet. I knew the kids were in the bathroom together and that there would probably be a mess to clean up, but they were quiet, so I left them. When I finally decided to go check on them, I found the sweetest scene unfolding.

These two are frenemies through and through. And, to be honest, the sweet times often feel far too few and far between. But watching them sweetly interact without fighting for a few moments was just what this mama's weary soul needed.
