This week was the height of our transition.
There was a lot of push and pull.
And crying.
I was looking through my Instagram feed and I realized it looks like this week was SO MUCH FUN.
But that was just what I took pictures of.
In between there was a lot of frustration.
And questions (from the boys AND me) about when they can go back to daycare.

June 10: Reading over some note my aunt took so I can write my grandfather’s military years in narrative form.

June 14: one of our favorite things to do all month: cards with great friends because it means family fun for all of us!
The truth of the photos is that we found fun.
The untruth of the pictures is that there was a lot of tension and stress and time outs around the fun.
That is parenthood, though, right?
We’ll get there.
Ah, reality. Pictures never quite do it justice.
Um, yup. All of this.
I’m glad to hear it’s not just me with the fun punctuated by stress, tension, and timeouts.
This is TOTALLY parenthood. It does look like you had fun, but I get it. It’s rough, too. Especially when the weather isn’t great (what’s up with it being so chilly??)
