It's so easy to get lost in the shuffle of everyday life, that you find yourself using "life" as an excuse. You were late to a party because of "life", you don't get to spend alone time with your husband because of "life", etc. The list goes on and on. I found myself thinking the other day that "life" shouldn't be used as an excuse. It's hard, incredibly hard, but you make the sacrifices for those things that matter.
I recently found this short video that I made for Wes for Valentine's Day back in 2008. It's easy to forget our life before kids (and I wouldn't change it for the world), but sometimes, its just good to get a reminder that we did have a life before kids. Before the hustle and the bustle. Before the diapers. Before the temper tantrums. Before the craziness that is the work week.
Sometimes, you just need a reminder to stop, and breathe once and a while.
