Today was Scout’s birthday party, and it was crazy. I woke up, and still have never stopped. By the end of the day, everyone was wiped. As the Brockbank’s were walking out the door at 9:00, Megan said, “I bet you are exhausted, and ready to go to bed.” It wasn’t until she made her comment that I realized that I was completely full of energy. I wasn’t ready for bed…in fact, I was ready for more. I couldn’t understand why I had so much energy after such a long day.
An hour or so later, it hit me.
I finally got it.
While I was doing the party….Icka was attended by others. (And when that wasn’t the case, she was picking up every spare piece of popcorn or goldfish off the ground to eat.)
I kid you not.
I had all of the energy in the world because Icka was out of my world.
When I started to tell Micah that I had so much energy, and I knew why….he finished my sentence with, “yeah…it was because you didn’t have Navy.” He then proceeded to tell me that as he had his arm around her at dinner the night before (because an Ickaless person invented the restaurant high chairs), there was constant tension. Not at one moment did she rest and just stand by him.
So don’t let this pretty little face fool you.
She is crazy!
And I say that in the most loving and exhausted way.
