Change is hard? Change is good? I don’t really know. I guess it is a little of both. Some people revel in change… they thrive on it. Brian is a change is good person. I am a change sucks kinds of person. The girls are both change is hard kind of people. This time at the beach has been rough. A change of scenery is nice… especially since the change is to weeks at the beach. BUT... it is also wrought with temper tantrums, lack of sleep, whining, crying and general inability to listen and follow rules. It makes me appreciate the system we have in place at home. At home I get frustrated that getting dressed or doing hair or brushing teeth takes too long. I have a new appreciation for the speed at which we do things at home. What takes us 5 minutes at home is taking us 10 minutes on vacation.
In some respects it is another wakeup call for me to stop trying to plan everything and control everything. That it is more than okay if we are late or things don’t go as planned. The world won’t stop turning. The sun will still come up. I am always telling the girls to stop and take a deep breath. I guess I should listen to my own advice.
