There are times with two littles that the day can seem to go on forever.
They bicker. They make giant messes. They push every mommy button known to man.
The other morning, after doing SO much house stuff, I turned to the clock in hopes of seeing a near lunch time number.
It was only 8:25.
And if you watch Cougar Town, you’ll know this Andy moment, all I could say out loud ….
“Come on!!”
So, I did all I could do. Break away from the shuffle of day to day chores and take the kids down to the lake.
Who ever thought the lingering smell of Lake Erie fish and dirty sand could calm a soul so?
We headed back to the car so the germ freak mom could clean the boys feet and hands.
They talked and talked about the beach the whole 2 minute car ride home.
I’m grateful for those dirty beaches.
The sound of the waves crashing onto the rocks.
And the fishy smell we all try to ignore.
45 minutes of breaking away helped turn our entire day around.
