A Slow Season

This is an odd time for me.
Since I was 21 years old I have had Alex & Olivia with me all day {minus that year I worked at Pucci Salon in Scottsdale}
But now they are in school all day.
They are big ole first graders.



That is leaving a quieter home.
I'm not used to it.
If you come to our house mostly it's chaotic. 
I mean two adults, three children & a dog, it's bound to be crazy.
Mostly we don't mind the crazy, and it's quite possible I thrive on it.
I was feeling so blah about it. 
And then the whisper.
          It's a slow season. And that's ok.

So I am in a slower season.
A season where I should probably you know clean that basement. And re-organize the kids rooms for the billionth time since we moved here.
And love extra on my toddler because Alex and Liv are proof of how fast this all goes.

I'm truly not a Windau (my maiden name) when it comes to my alcohol consumption. I put my catholic roots to shame. I'm ok with that. I'm not a mean drunk, but a purely giggly & say inappropriate thing drunk. Today stung. It stung hard. Last Tuesday we got a call for a little 5 month old baby. Technically we got a call for 4 boys but for reasons that I will not share, we could only say yes to little guy. And then there was waiting. And more waiting because our agency couldn't find a home for 4 of the little guys, they came from a sibling group of 6. All 6. Boys. That would be headed for permanent custody. In my mind all the things lined up. I had prayed for an orphan. I had been learning about how to bond with a baby in the adoption sens...
