My Recent Zen Moment Ruined (or not!)

October 10, 2008 by Elaine

Tim was coming home late from work. The boys and I were lying on The B Man’s bed, surrounded by his 40 bagillion stuffed animals. I relaxed into the bed out of sheer exhaustion, from all the “running” I have been doing lately. Both literally and figurativelly. Behind me I could hear their breathing. I…
