A small blue
Hot Wheel Camaro was in my pocket.
I was so
thankful to hold it. To smile for a second and think of my little man who never
leaves home without a vehicle in his hand. While he spends his days at
school, and I spend my days at work, we are connected.
These little
reminders of my daily motivation, they’re everywhere. Sometimes it's a blue Camaro and sometimes it's a purple hair
bow. They're in my coat pockets, purse, and under the seats of my car. Every time I
find one I can’t help but smile.
This season of parenting is hard. There's never any time and I always feel I'm stretched too thin. But these tiny reminders, they help. They are quick examples of my why. Why I wake up before the sun rises, and close down my computer long after it sets.

This car is neither blue or a Camaro. It was another car. On another day. |
I already
know, one day, in the not-so-distant future, I’ll stop finding these reminders everywhere
I look. The Camaro and the purple bow
will be missing from my pockets, and the little people they belong to won’t be
so little anymore.
So, for now, I smile with gratitude. And refill my coffee.
Cheers!
