Pause...

We're usually pretty darn busy around here, but I've noticed that Thursday afternoons almost always feel like a nice, deep breath.  By the time I pick up the kids from school on Thursday, I've made it through my teaching for the week and there seems to be a natural pause that takes place.  I catch my breath and regroup... reclaim the house a bit... enjoy a moment or two in the garden or on the patio.  Tomorrow morning we'll get everyone out the door one last time, and then the weekend will be upon us!
