rewards
We always seem to shine as a family at the end of the day. It is in the quiet (or sometimes not so quiet) moments after dinner and before bed that we are able to truly enjoy our children and put whatever obstacles that we have encountered during the day behind us. All seems brighter once my reinforcements have come in (which would be Mark), dinner is made, and bedtime is in sight. Mark often takes over during these short hours and fully enjoys being a child again with his three boys. He really is a great dad and is often able to relate to them in a way that I just cannot seem to. Somehow I cannot picture myself running around the house fighting "bad guys" with my super powers--laundry basket on one hip and Ollie on the other. Mark can also spend long periods of time with the boys creating different scenarios with action figures that will be repeated throughout the following day. Seeing my husband interact with his children would have to be the highlight of this phase of our lives. We look forward to more independence and time together but are incredibly thankful for these opportunities to laugh at ourselves and enjoy our kids.
