Friday

Friday, that most coveted day of the week. Unless your "job" is like mine. I get no Friday, no weekend to look forward to. My job is always here, maybe it is less demanding because I have help at home, but always here. The funny thing about the weekend is that everyone still needs to eat, have clean clothes and messes are made that have to be picked up. And guess who gets to do it? ME!!! And you know what? I wouldn't have it anyother way. I get to be home with my kids all day, play with them, teach them and yes, discipline them, but so many people I know?are missing out on this, the everyday nitty gritty of raising their kids. I can't help but wonder if they realize what they are trading for a paycheck, for mere THINGS, and if they will someday look back and wish they had spent a little more time just being a parent. I guess many won't, but I am glad that I will never have to ask myself that question. Just a little something to think about today as you go about your Friday, whatever that may mean to you.
