Just a Second

Hi. I have just a second. Enough time to scrawl out a quick hello.

Hello future self. Remember, this moment?

When the Kindergarten bus was due in 20 minutes, Papa Den took Molly to the grocery store to pick up frozen lasagna and at least one baby was crying out a mamamamahhh from up stairs.

Think back to the guilt you felt, when you wished the time would pass more quickly. Think back to the joy you felt when all 4 little ones were clamoring on your lap at once. Think back if you can…

Ah future self, what are you doing now? Do your clothes ever get folded? Does anyone, but you, know where the strainer is? I don’t even want to ask what color your hair is!

What words would you speak to me at 31? Would be words of encouragement or words of direction? Maybe both.

Well, I just had a second. So, hi.

Love,

Jess
