The small things in life; like a cup of (decaf) coffee and oatmeal.
All the small things that happen in a day.
A laugh, a kiss, a hug, a tear, a stomping foot. Meals, snacks, drinks, and random in-betweens. Toilet flushes, paper towel rolls, and laundry washes. Canned beans, bananas, yogurt. Can openers, spatulas, and dirty bowls. Books, Barbies, blocks. Crayons, glue, and glitter. Rules, freedoms, schedules. Dances, toothbrushes, soap. A snowstorm, marshmallows, and boots. Impeachment, liars, SSB 1065. Homework, reading, worksheets, teaching. Coffee, water, back to coffee. Deep breaths, patience, overload. Texts, emails, status. Sweat pants, slippers, messy buns. Newscasts, X-Files, radar, books. Bedtime, pillows, stalls. Darkness, quiet, whispers, giggles.
All the small things that happen in a day.
