{Harper fell asleep in the sling on a recent visit to the shore, so I laid him down to give my back a little rest. I thought Martha might like to see how her sweet gossamer scarf doubles as not only what I wear around my neck nearly each day, but also as the perfectly cozy/smells like Mama nap rest spot, too. Martha's new collection - uniform natural launches today!}
You all are so incredibly kind. Thanks for the sweet words and well wishes. We are doing okay. While waiting for things to turn, and waiting on a diagnosis, we're taking good care of Papa and feeling full of gratitude for all that is around us. Though, that isn't to say that I haven't found myself on more than one occasion staring at a sleeping child of mine - like the scene above - with envious longing for just a little nap. I'm a wee bit tired. The days are very, very full right now.
In the past few weeks (yes, this injury has been going on for a while now), audiobooks have been making their way into our daily lives. There's nothing like gathering around and snuggling up together to listen to a story. The little ones daydream or draw; and mama knits or...if all is safe and well, closes her eyes for just a tiny bit of semi-rest.
I subscribed to Simple Audio Books, which we're loving (The Adventures of Tom Sawyer, narrated by Paul Newman, is on tap!). And we've been doing a bit of Boomerang. But what else is out there? Any great online family-friendly audio suggestions for us?
{I likely won't be back before Monday, so I wish you a lovely weekend ahead! And be sure to pop on by here for the regularly weekend-scheduled Sponsor goodness!}
