Kasey's Rambles

I am utterly exhausted tonight. So my title isn’t the best. I do apologize. But as I sit here outside on my back stoop…thinking of what to write…I really couldn’t think of anything super crazy or interesting. Well to most at least…

So as a lot of you know I run a pizza shop and Fridays, ugh, well they are unpredictable. Tonight wasn’t bad. I was cooking so I wasn’t dealing with the front of the house as much. It’s always a nice change of pace. So, Fridays, always a long day but today just came and went.

I come home to two rambunctious boys wrestling in my son’s bedroom floor. Those boys being my husband and son. Haha.

So I get to doing my nightly routine. Feed Queenie, out pitbull pupp, do whatever random things I didn’t get to finish the previous day done. Fridays, Mama doesn’t do dinner since I work a 10hr day lol

So it’s finally time to put my son to bed. Now since it is was later than usual, and he wasn’t in the best of moods I had said I would read. Well he said he wanted to!! So we sat there for 40minutes! Reading “I want to be a Veterinarian.” Now I will it sit here and say I was completely enjoying it the entire time. Because that would be a lie. After about 15 minutes I was getting frustrated. My son will sometimes really “act” like he doesn’t know the word, when he does. Now I’m no expert, and I’m not going to say I know why he does it. Because I don’t. But it’s frustrating. I’m tired. Still haven’t showered. And now I am reading a book that should only take 5 minutes to read…and we are now sitting here for what feels like an hour.

I know it sounds horrible. I’m ranting, venting whatever you call it. But here’s the best part.

I snapped out of that being impatient attitude and mad because I smelled like onions and pizza. And I started really watching my almost first grader read an entire book with really no problem at all. It truly is a beautiful thing to watch your children grow and learn in front of your very eyes.

And for me, personally to be here, present, in the moment means the world to me on so many levels.

So I titled this Blog “Young Reader” because by Golly ladies and gentlemen I have a little young Reader on my hands!!! I am extatic. And he is even pushing me to want to read again…as Mommy isn’t a huge fan of reading books. But now, now we have another thing we can do as Mother and Son.

It was just an amazing way to end a day that just seem ordinary. Now it is an extraordinary Friday. My son is reading, and loves to do so. My heart is beaming right now.

But my eyes are also getting very heavy and my feet are killing me lol. So I am going to hit the sack hahaha Do people even say that anymore. Oh well. I do.

Till next time…📚📖
