So, we’re six days into the new year. The kids have had two days back at school. We’re establishing a rhythm. A new, slower rhythm, to our lives. This was our intent, afterall. I’ve blogged about that recently. We’re succeeding so far, it would seem.
Yes, there’s still Boy Scouts. And Ballet. And Fencing. But this week, the whole family is suiting up for Fencing. We’re all taking lessons together. And through that, we’re having a lot of fun.
For the first time ever, C and I sparred last night. It was all sorts of giggly fun, like when we were dating.
The kids are working hard to flex their organizational muscles, get up to their alarm clocks and self-motivate. They’re making progress. It’s good. It quiets the drama.
We’re not trying to be hermits; we’re just trying to create consistency, predictability and a relative lack of crisis.
