Life plays on a loop for us.
Monday. Wake up. Breakfast. School. Grocery shopping. Lunch. School pickup. Snack. Dinner. Homework. Bedtime.
Tuesday. Repeat. Minus the grocery store. Add preschool.
Wednesday. Repeat. Minus preschool.
Thursday. Repeat. Add...
And the picture is clear. No grand adventures. No silly tales to tell. We thrive on routine, the constant hum drum of life. But little bits of magic happen because we make it. We choose to spin tales of giants crashing down stone castles. When in reality, it is Nicholas Gray, destructo extraordinaire, destroying our lego creation. And at the end of a long week we decide to have family movie night. We pop popcorn and rip open boxes and bags of candy. We throw caution to the wind and fill our bellies with junk food for dinner. We cuddle and laugh and stare wide-eyed at the television.
Mama took the record off loop for one night and we rocked it out to our beat. Family movie nights are just plain awesome!
