Love Dressed Up as Life

Woke up yesterday facing a drive to Philadelphia to check on Jack’s uncle who is in the hospital . . .

Checking email before leaving — (punctuated by: “Your shoes are in the closet. . . get them on and get in the truck!)

And found a message from one Cotillion member to another about the “chaos and mayhem” of being a mother. . . (“C’mon, let’s get going, gang. Get in the truck!”)

But her conclusion really hit me:

Right now it just LOOKS like choas and mayhem, but it’s just love dressed up as life.

Thanks to Rightwing Sparkle for a thought that stayed with me through a long, weary day full overflowing of love and life.
