“Beyond”

Go:

Beyond tired.  Beyond hot.  Beyond the potty chair.  Beyond cleaning the potty chair.  I like changing diapers–the world stopped while I wiped butts and made funny faces at my kids–connected with them.  Changing diapers can be a beautiful moment.  I am beyond the physical part changing diapers but emotionally I wish I still had those moments each day with my kids.  Now I have a potty chair to empty–so not the same.

STOP.

So, set your timer, clear your head, for five minutes of free writing without worrying about getting it right.

1. Write for 5 minutes flat – no editing, no over thinking, no backtracking. 2. Link back here and invite others to join in. 3. And then absolutely, no ifs, ands or buts about it, you need to visit the person who linked up before you & encourage them in their comments. Seriously. That is, like, the rule. And the fun. And the heart of this community..

OK, are you ready? Please give me your best five minutes on:::

Beyond…

    These days are coming for me! I am pregnant with my first baby. I’m already working to savor each moment, no matter how difficult, painful, or hard it might be. I know from hearing others how quickly they pass! :-) Visiting from 5-Minute Friday!

    This post made me laugh. So true. Changing diapers was often fun. Emptying a potty chair, not so much. Stopped over from the 5 Minute Friday.
