Remember when you were a kid and you didn’t have a second thought about doing something fun?
Welcome to being a responsible adult! Working all the time, try to get some time to yourself for a workout or have a hot cup of coffee…work some more, take an hour to get a kid to a dentist appointment…work some more, maybe I can actually get a load of laundry in before everyone runs out of clean underwear.
Try Some Work/Play Balance
Hmmm, is this what they refer to as work/life balance? Yep, we forget the “life” part of that equation should also include having some FUN!
The kids happened to have an additional Monday off of school before the winter break was over. Lucky for us, there was fresh snow on the ground, and it had finally warmed up enough to get everyone outside.
The kids REALLY wanted to go sledding, but I had a full day of work ahead of me. It crossed my mind…they’re growing up fast and how often do I actually take a day to do something fun? I decided to take the day off and enjoy my WOMENT with some work/PLAY balance.
I couldn’t tell what the kids were more excited about, a day of mom all to themselves or hitting that huge sledding hill. We happen to have the best spot just a hike away.
I took a day to be a kid with my three favorite little people. No makeup, no team meeting calls and no laundry, just a day of fun.
