Normalcy.

Don’t we all just want to feel normal?

What does that even mean anymore? Who is defining normal for us?

It should be us and the people we love.

It’s not hoping for the next like, scrolling into the chasm that never has a loop, knowing the next gossip bit, or even the things that worry us the most: money, children, security, relationships.

The simple moments of laughter, meals, transparency, exercise, reading, routines, and yes, even chores, create a stability for the joyous crazy times that are also necessary.

I know we’re not all parents but I want to speak to that.

The parents, that, no matter what they’re dealing with, still create normalcy and transparency is where I see the most fruit. Taking children to sports practice, regular mealtimes, homework, bedtimes, and conversations. You’re doing a great work!

Single parents, I give you extra kudos. Not everyone gets it. And it’s ok. Keep going. Do your best. God will bless your efforts. He sees them. Even if you lack support. You are amazing!

Ultimately, Its our kids’ hearts that matter.

People that help us create normalcy is where we need to be and stay.

The value of the “mundane” is getting lost.

Let us not lose this!

In my opinion, it is where we find the truest Treasures of this world
