There has been a lot going on with my family, work, everything.
We made a trip up to WI to spend time with my grandpa who is ending his battle with cancer.
There was an amazing party for him, to recognize and thank him for the 53 years of driving school bus, I will certainly be blogging about that soon. He is just really starting to suffer, and you just want so badly for the pain to be over for him.
Work is nuts. I am currently trying to mastermind an event where I am coordinating close to 200 volunteers for 2 days, in 2 locations to move 100K books through the city of Chicago from 10 storage units to across town and then moved into our new warehouse on Super Bowl Weekend.
They all need to be fed! And followed up with, confirmed! Then there is all the media to contact to let them know we are even doing this....whew!
So I was reminded by a simple scene at my house when I got home from the gym yesterday morning, that things are okay. And that family is what matters most and to really remember to appreciate the small things.
Here is what I came home to; my two boys, all snuggled in bed. And you can guess that I promptly jumped into bed to join in on the reading of "Chocolate Chippo Hippo" one of the new favorites.
