Stack of Pancakes

Life. It's the little things.

I loved being a stay-at-home mom for some of the most formative years of my daughter's life. It would be a regular week day, and she would ask for something like a stack of pancakes. I would make them without thinking, really.

Now that I am working every day, these things are "extra special" and we only have time for making pancakes on the weekends.

But I'm glad we had that time together. Now she is in school every day, and I'm glad I have a job to keep me busy. It makes me appreciate the time we do have together a little more.

And every Saturday, I'm happy to make her a stack of pancakes.
