these are the days





Sometimes life's best when schedules fly out the window and you just roll with the day


Sans naps, a hood instead of a proper hat to shield the rain



With enough time to hold hands and push strollers on wet pavement



These are the days when car naps, reheated pizza for dinner and early bedtimes are savored like a decaf coffee in the late afternoon





These are the moments I'll miss oneday






Nursing in a baby gap nursing room filled with headless child-sized mannequins with one lone arm chair



we have company at the baby gap nursing room


Stopping at the bookstore for coffee and staying over an hour, holed up in the kids section playing with toy trains, him standing, fascinated by the table of wooden tracks,





For the little boy who said, "babies don't know how to play," and how he blushed with pride when I responded, "well, if you show him how, he can watch you and learn."






We set out to buy gifts but came home empty-handed but with bellies full of love for days like this



where's waldo?


that end with a little boy in a pile of toys

and in bed, asleep, before the clock hit eight.
