But not for the reasons you may think.
Fridays I open the studio and get to work with an amazing woman. We connected pretty much immediately on meeting and I look forward to seeing her each week. Not only is she is a wealth of information about fitness but is insanely positive and actively listens to her students so she can encourage them in the way they most need. She is a gift to my Fridays!
Because I have a later start (Hey there 5am!) I am able enjoy breakfast-time with my daughter, along with that all-important 2nd cup of coffee, then take her to school.
Today as we pulled up to the drop off line she had So Much Stuff to juggle. Props in a bag for an after-school club, her lunch bag, backpack, water bottle - and was remarkably unfazed by my visible anxiety about her gathering everything and exiting the car. She sat peacefully with her earbuds in, just listening to music.
Finally I said “Hey, you kind of need to get it together because we're at school.”
And then she said, “Mother, I will probably never have all my stuff together but for today let’s just say I do.”
That kid teaches me something every single day. ❤️
