Waiting in change

I am sitting here right now waiting on my girls to get out of an after noon extra curricular. I don't normally work from my car, but new times, new ways of working and being and thinking.

This week, readjusting to the old ‘normal' has been emotionally challenging for me. With having to wait a lot more on the kids--in the drop off/pick up lines, waiting while they do activities, waiting while I hurd them out the door—I have had a lot of time to think about the changes that are occurring all around me. I have been given many moments, like this one, to wait in the midst of the changes occurring.

Some of these changes are good; My kids are seeing friends again, learning is easier in person, I am not the only person in their life!

Some I am not such the fan of; I worry about them not being safe as NO ONE seems to be wearing masks, I see them so much less, I know so much less about what is happening.

But the truth is that everything does change. Just when we think we have it all figured out…..change!

So as I sit and wait on my children whose scheduleds are picking back up and who I now find myself waiting on alot And who I can kind of missing seeing every hour every day. I know this too will change. So I will cling to this moment and look for the joy that God has tucked away in there for me and await the next change.

I know it is coming!
