The Water Break. #iPPP

For many years I prayed for more children. I thought of all I wished to do with more sweet blessings.

Lunches in the park, long walks in the twilight and shared popcorn at the movies.

Waiting around for over an hour at athletic practice never entered my mind.

But if your child participates in sports, music or any after school activity — you are going to find yourself waiting around.

I used to get out of the car, be social — friendly even. Now I look at that time in the car as a chunk of time to do something productive.

So halfway through practice the other day, up came my little tackler for a water break.

To remove that plastic bottle from his mouth, we needed to summon the jaws of life.

Called back to the field. Of course, he was the only child up by the cars because I was the only parent in a car.

I gave him a little headbutt and he was off.

Back to work for me.

What about you? What do you do with your waiting around time?

Linking up with Greta @gfunkied and Julie @Mamamash for another iPPP.
