routine returns

As a mother, I am always grateful for this day. The day after Labor Day. The day the children go back to school.

Today is T's first day of Grade 9. Yet it seems like only a few short months ago I was taking her to preschool.

Time has flown so fast for me a parent. It's an excellent reminder to slow down.

RC, T and I are having conversations about the next little person that will be around our home. That we are readying for a baby reminds me of how far I've come raising a teenager on my own and how far we've got to go to bring another child into this world together.
