so blessed. day thirteen

Some days I feel like we live in our car.  Today was one of those days.  And I don't even have kids in school yet.  Scary.  As many times as I've promised myself that I'm going to avoid being a going, going, going here and going there kind of a mom, I'm learning that sometimes, as much as I want to fight it, life just requires being on the go.  We have found our ways to make the best of the busy.  In fact, our car time has become some of our most blessed times.  There is something extremely powerful in having a captive, strapped in their car seats kind of an audience.  It is on our drives that Russell's curiosity seems to be turned way up...  A time where I have learned to turn the radio way down and take advantage of these special teaching moments.  So blessed.
