Days 7 & 8: Catch Me If You Can

I feel like my life is going by at 90 mph. It always feels like that in October, but this year it feels particularly busy. I will be all over the country in the next couple of weeks so please bear with me if I get behind on posting! I have been keeping up with my #adamsacts every day, but it’s not as easy to sit down and write out something thoughtful each night!

For #Day7 I paid for someone’s lunch and for #Day8 Harper and I helped out our sweet friends’ by taking care of their little ladies for the day. Harper is an awesome babysitter and when he freed the frisbee from the tree, we all cheered. These two little peanuts were almost as impressed with Harper as he was with himself. 😆

But in that moment it was easy to see how a little girl could have come to admire her brother as much as I did. When you are tiny and unsure how to get the frisbee out of the proverbial tree, you sometimes look up to the bigger kid who seems so sure and capable and larger than life in those moments. I guess that’s maybe what I miss the most. When I’m looking up at some problem in my life that has me feeling stuck in the tree, and knowing that he would be able to talk me through it, he’d be able to get me down safely, and if I fell I knew he’d catch me.
