A Perfect Moment Not a Perfect Family

Before you have children you have these grand illusions of what they"ll be like. I remembering being excited to have someone to make crafts with, and thinking when I was expecting my second how we would instill a deep sense of family in our household, so there would be little sibling rivalry... HAHA! That's just not the way it works, AT ALL! However, Ian has been home from school for a week and a half with a cold and there have been a few moments of that perfect parental bliss I dreamed of so long ago. Kai Ian and I sat on my bed together and read an entire Munchworks from cover to cover complete with hysterical giggles and cozy cuddles, it was a perfect moment. It's important for me to remember that even though this journey is nothing like I had anticipated there are those moments when all is right with the world.
