Sometimes you’ll have a day when your kids are totally compliant.

When they say yes, do what you ask, move along with the bedtime routine.

You simmer in idyllic bubbly joy.

Sometimes you’ll have a day when your kids are royal pains in the a$s.

When they don’t say anything, do what they may, distract to the left, to the right, around and around again.

You simmer in infuriating kiddo chaos.

Sometimes you’ll have a day when the sun shines and the sky burns blue.

Sometimes you’ll have a day when the grey moves in and the cold wind bites to the bone.

Sometimes you’ll have a day when there is birth and beauty and new and bloom.

Sometimes you’ll have a day when there is death and hard and the ground is no more.

Sometimes there will be gain.
Sometimes there will be loss.

Different days, different ways.

This is what I tell my children.
This is what I tell myself.

And in these ways,
(all these ways)

there is (always)

always

life.

Drip in it
Sit in it

ever morphing

Life.

Take good care,
Rachel

p.s. If you’re in the hard stuff right now and want some softening à la Rachel, here’s a short 5 minute Progressive Muscle Relaxation that I recently recorded for a lovely client. Take a quick seat or lie down, try it out and know this – you’re doing great.
