I went down the water slide...I WENT DOWN THE WATER SLIDE YALL! What may seem like an insignificant moment felt like a rush of freedom for me! Last year I was not the fun mom...I was the needy mom. Sadie was played with by so many but that didn’t include me. I was sick. I could barely get out of bed some days. And it was truly awful. But this year? This year I am healthy. This year I am stronger. This year I will play hard with her and do all the silly things that make her belly laugh!
So what did I do? I went down the dang water slide! It was freezing cold, and I wasn’t in a swimsuit... but it was so fun and so worth it! She thought it was the greatest thing. There will come a time when she won’t want me to play with her and her friends. There will come a time when I’m no longer cool. I mean, who can imagine that? 😂 But after a year of missing out on fun with her, I will grab at every moment I can between now and my “uncool” status to be a fun, silly, mama...even if it’s something as simple as going down a water slide in my clothes!
Also, This is my “holy crap that water is cold face”
