Sprinting

I feel like I sprinted all day. It was a full day of meetings, problem-solving, celebrations, preparations and family routines. It was the kind of day that I realized I hadn't used the bathroom and it was 4 pm! TMI? 

But now, as I lie in bed with everyone in the house asleep, I can hear the soft rain on the roof. Suddenly my sprinting is being washed away and I can feel my body finally slowing down. 

Ahhhhhhh. 

And for this, I am thankful. 

Happy Birthday, Mom!
