It’s always a bit harder to find the wonder this week. For some reason, the transition from school to summer kicks our familial butts every year. I know it gets better. I know we settle in and start having fun just when I’m ready to kill them all (and they are ready to run away from me!). But for now, it’s a chore to see the sun through the weeds of snarky, arguing and irritation.
But there is indeed some wonder every day.
Hot breakfast, late in the morning, still in pjs!
Sticking the landing (almost, what are those hands?) at the last gymnastics practice.
So, it’s there among the chaos. If we look really hard, we can find the Wonder.
