Thursday hangout
There couldn’t have been a better way to end a successful workday than with a cozy picnic by the Nyírjes! After leaving the office, I tossed a pack of peanut puffs and a bottle of tea into my bag, picked up the little one from kindergarten, and we didn’t stop until we reached the lake. It reminded me a bit of the old days (ever since he turned five, almost everything reminds me of the old days), when he used to toddle holding my hand and wanted to go everywhere at once.
Yesterday, on the other hand, we talked about kindergarten things, the differences between boys and girls, and what to cook for dinner. He’s slowly growing up beside me, and sometimes I don’t quite know what to do with that—I desperately want to turn back time for a little more baby cuddling… Then again, I also look forward to seeing what kind of person he’ll become when he’s able to share his own thoughts with me. That’s motherhood.
