Catch up can wait...

Monday was beautiful..

The sun was shining..

and weather was warm...

and where was I?

Inside..

cleaning a house

that seemed to be messier when I finished..

than when I started..

How does that even happen?

I am still playing catch up this week,

catch up on laundry..

catch up on cleaning..

catch up on dishes..

Catch up.

But there is one thing I can't catch up on..

spending time with my babies..

because

 unlike the endless mountain of laundry..

once those moments are gone..

they are gone..

So today..

it was beautiful outside..

and frankly a disaster inside..

but

 instead of playing catch up..

I just played..

we went outside..

enjoyed the warmth..

enjoyed our time together..

I read this post today..

and thought it was a wonderful idea..

I want my kids to have pictures of me..

to go along with their memories..

But unfortunately I am not too handy with the whole timer thing..

so here are my outtakes..

I managed to leave room..

for an entire other human being..

in the frame..

yet still managed to cut off my head..
