End of the Day

The sun is moving on to the other side of the world to shine on billions of people's tomorrow [some whom I know personally] and my day is coming to a close.  I'm writing here, not because I intend to be profound, but because I want to talk.

Today has included conversations with my husband, my children, my dog. It has included cleaning house, preparing food, eating. I have helped with sermons, internet downloads, imovie with subtitles, relationship advice, wording of dreams, planning of grad school -- resourced information for a coworker's project;  read scripture; prayed; touched base with family in crisis; read, facebooked,... oh, and I cut hair.

I have felt guilt over not leaving my house, not getting grad school work done, not being involved in an outreach of some sort today, and not working on fine arts stuff.

My day has been full. I have cried over others hearts and their struggles in life. I have laughed heartily at stories told from interesting perspectives. I have hugged and encouraged.

I think today I have been a mom. Not a superwoman. Not Sara Palin. Not June Cleaver. 


Just a mom. I like it.
