Days go by in such a blur as lunch packing and homework helping bleed into drop-off, meetings and meals. I’m not really complaining, just noting that I am holding on somedays more than I am actually steering. The relay of milestones as Briar reads, Avery tumbles and Finley does it herself makes it more challenging than ever to train my eye on thing, like the way Avery has conditioned herself to slow down and say “Th-u-ree” instead of “Fwee.”
