That pretty much sums up my week lol. I've had one of the busiest weeks in a long time. Not to say it hasn't been a good week because it has. I just haven't been this on the go in a long time. It felt nice to have a change of pace though, as sometimes you need to do that for a little excitement and to step out of the box a bit so to speak.
I had Juli's school and activities this week, a few overviews for my Motivated Moms business, getting Jean-Pierre ready for his new job, all of the usual house chores, quite a few errands to run, one of my best friends coming into town from Winnipeg with her 7 month old daughter, and in all that I still found some time to do a few things for me. As I said - busy lol! I was literally on the go for three days straight.
I'm most excited though about Naomi coming into town. I haven't seen her since she was pregnant and it was the pure highlight of my week. It's nice to have something like that to look forward to. Meeting her little girl and getting those beautiful smiles was one of the best things. Warms my heart! Smiles from a little baby like that is the most natural and innocent things there is. I held her and felt her play with my necklace and my hair. I loved it.
Brought back so many lovely memories of when Juli was that age and she used to do that. I had forgotten over the past few years. Was so nice to remember. While holding her in my arms it was like the rest of the world disappeared and I lost track of all that was on my mind. It's awesome that babies have the power to do that for you.
Naomi is here for the next week and I plan on getting in as much time with Shayna as I can. Not sure when I'll get to see her again in person. We are having a visit with my Dad and Mum today as they haven't seen Naomi in many years. Going to be a lovely visit that I am looking so forward to! As well, Juli is meeting Shayna today and I am super excited about that too. Juli loves babies and is so good with them. Shayna is so bouncy and energetic. It is going to be an exciting day to say the least.
Then it is going to be a weekend about family. We're going to be seeing a lot of Jean-Pierre's family and that is going to be special. His brother and wife are in from England and I am so happy he is going to get to see them. We don't get to very often and it is treasured time when we do. Family is so important and means the world to us.
So all in all my weekend is going to match my week on the busy level, but it will be a good kind of busy.
Then next week begins the new chapter. I can say I am so proud of Jean-Pierre and I hope he knows that.
Well, I am going to go attack the weekend! I will let you know how it goes. Just remember to enjoy what you do as it goes so fast!
