Care. Walk. Repeat.

in Actifit16 days ago

Today, life hit a weird paradox—more hectic, yet somehow more still.

Our youngest had surgery yesterday. He’s home now, recovering, which means we’re on full-time help mode. Add in our daughter needing wheelchair support, and yeah, “relaxing” isn’t the word that comes to mind.

But here’s the twist: because we can’t leave the house for trips or errands, there’s also this unexpected pocket of time. And I filled that space with walking. Twice. In the sunshine. At 0 degrees, no less—but I’ll take what I can get.

The canal was glowing like it knew I needed the mood lift. Glassy reflections, leaf-crunch paths, and a sky that said, “Hey, slow down, you’re doing okay.”

Parenting in times like this isn’t pretty or poetic. But these photos? They’re proof that even the messy seasons come with beautiful light.

I hope the surgery on your youngest went well, my friend!👍😊
Parenting certainly isn’t for the faint of a heart, but I wouldn’t trade it for the world!😊

All went well, and he's recovering well!
Yup, not an easy job, parenting, but the most beautiful one I can think of!

We just became first-time grandparents three months ago, with a beautiful granddaughter Olivia!🥰
Our son just texted last night, he's sick, his wife sick, and Olivia unfortunately is as well.......
Oh the joys of parenting.... Especially with first time mom and dad's!😇

Yeah indeed! And it when you first encounter something like that, it seems so impossible, but they will do just great!
No grandparent here yet, our oldest is 25, but all of them single (or more or less :-) )

Oh my!!!
May your youngest recover completely from that surgery soonest.

Parenting sure comes with huge responsibilities and yes it's rewarding too

True about the responsibilities and the rewards :-)
Yes, he's gradually improving. It will take quite some more time, but we'll get there!
