I find comfort in believing that one day I will look back on a day like today and smile. It has been a rough week because the kiddo’s been sick so we are lacking sleep. It’s been rough because of how busy the beginning of the semester tends to be. It’s been especially rough because two of my team members found new positions and left this afternoon to continue their journeys elsewhere. I will miss them.

As much as I’d like to take the rest of the week off and crawl in my bed to sleep, I know that my family needs me. I find the strength to keep going from them. And so keep going I will, at least until the weekend. Look for me under my covers then.
