A few weeks back
during girls weekend
[which on a side note...this girl..sent me the cutest handwritten thank you for!]
a couple of the girls stayed over
and we went shopping on Sunday
The girls that stayed over are all single & younger than me
It got me thinking
thinking about the differences
the changes
some little, some big
But the one I found the most humorous
was the 'getting ready' process that morning
See these girls [young & carefree...oh how I used to be!] spent their 42 minutes prepping
perfect makeup
adorable clothes
checking facebook
chatting & laughing
I spent my 42 minutes
feeding Murdock
flipping the clothes from the washer to the dryer
folding & putting away the clothes laying in the dryer
taking Murdock outside
unloading & reloading the dish washer
picking up from the night before
oh...and switching from my pajamas to some jeans and throwing my hair in a pony tail as I walked out the door
I'm not complaining...I love my life...and I really [truly from the bottom of my heart] enjoy 'taking care of people' & doing homemaker things
I just forgot what it was like to not HAVE to do these things each morning
It made me smile
Now...I wouldn't have it any other way!!
