This morning I woke up feeling wiped. No reason... I guess it was just one of those days. So I scratched my errand plans and took the boys to a park that has big porch swings scattered around. I plopped on one and just swung while the boys played and climbed.
It was cloudy and the wind was blowing so it felt cool and unusual for a Georgia summer day. I was thoroughly enjoying myself, and at one point I wanted to say outloud that I love the wind and I could swing all day. But I was too exhausted to speak, and who would care?
When the boys got tired of playing, they came over and climbed up on the big swing with me. They both rested their heads against my body, and we swung for a few quiet minutes. Wyatt broke the silence eventually... he tilted his head up in the air and said "I love the wind. Don't you Mommy?" I smiled and nodded, and he snuggled closer.
Don't you just love those boys? Sounds like a great day.

In the life of a mom, days like this make the hard days all worth it.
