Thank Goodness It’s Friday

Even the best of mothers get to that point…. you know “that point?”
– when stomping your feet and yelling nonoonoo actually seems like the logical reaction to dropping the last egg on the floor when you need it to make supper –
– when pointing your finger at your husband and saying “he made me do it” is the answer to any and all offenses –
– when doodling on the cat seems like a much better idea than folding the laundry –
You know “that point,” I know you do, because I know it too!

But when I get to that point, I stop for a minute
– stop praying for someone with more authority than myself to order me to a time out –
And think about my life…
my charmed life – full of chaos –
with 6 adorable children – louder than any other 6 children I know –
in a comfortable home – comfortable is the key word here –
and plenty of food to eat – albeit not the dinner I had planned –
and I remind myself of all the gifts that I have been given, blessings that I have earned, & that I can be part of a cultural tradition that knows no bounds…
