Almost every day someone will come up to @jessavolk and I telling us they’d do anything to go back to when their kids were this age.
Almost every day there are moments of chaos, moments of testing my patience and moments I think to myself “it will be nice when this season is finished” or “it will be nice when they can go to school so we can get our days back”
Selfish but true haha
But in the same day there are moments I want to never end, giggles that I could hear forever, cuddles, questions, and bright eyes. Wonder that I wish I could get back.
Almost every day when I get woken up around 5am and whether I’m ready to go (not often) or I’m trying to peel my eyes open, I try to remind myself - don’t let the time slip.
I’m no writer - but If I could say anything to my fellow homies with young kids I’d say take every day and love all the chaotic, the chill, the wild, the ordinary moments before our time slips and we’re the people wishing we had these days back.
What started as a simple date idea when @jessavolk and I first started going out — decorating on November 1st has turned into one of our favorite traditions.
Ten years later, as our 11th November 1st rolls on, it’s no longer about us. Watching these kids light up all day, soaking in the magic we used to make for ourselves gave us ALL the feels! (Not to mention listening to uncle @jonvolk ’s new single - go stream go listen)
It’s wild how something so small can become the thing that fills your heart the most.
SO COME AT US FOR WANTING AN EXTRA 30 DAYS OF MAGIC 🤑🎅🏼🤶🏼🫶🏼
Happy November 1st everyone 🫡
