Brown Paper Packages Tied Up with Strings

Sometimes,

when you think there's no possible way 

you're going to make it through the week,

when you literally have to work two jobs at one time,

when you can't miss your shift online,

but the little girl you nanny has bronchitis,

when you have tons of emails to respond to,

and people counting on you,

when you feel like there are so many people to check up on

and really important deadlines to make,

and far too little time to do so,

when you're going on waaay too little sleep,

and you just want to cry a little bit...

Well, that's when that little girl you nanny pulls out her "laptop"

(aka her little lap-desk and some paper),

sits quietly next to you (so she doesn't interrupt your work)

and whispers she's going to "work" with you,

and then quietly slips you a piece of paper that looks like this...

...and reminds you that you're never alone;

even though you might feel like it sometimes.

And also,

that it's all gonna be okay!!

Grateful for:

every note my mom's ever written me on a post-it ,

any flowers I've ever been given,

any package I've ever been sent,

and any card or letter I've ever been written.

I really treasure them!!

(and also hang as many as I can on my cork board)

New Goal:

send more notes and cards and letters,

and LOVE to the people I love the most!
