I took both kids to the beach for an afternoon by myself last week.  I feel like there should be badges in motherhood, like Girl Scouts.  This definitely earns a badge.  This week I’m volunteering at VBS every day with Hazel strapped to me in the carrier, occasionally nursing.  This also deserves a badge.

It is so hot, but I look forward to these long afternoon walks along the Sea wall anyway. The big sky and vast ocean remind me that the world is so much bigger than my daily concerns. I wouldn’t trade my time with these two every day, but I admit I also look forward to putting in my headphones and getting a break from the never ending game of twenty questions (per minute…).
