flying a kite... or trying to.

All week I had planned to fly a kite on Sunday as a family since our month of April has pretty much been the busiest month of our lives. no joke. At night Cameron and I just look at each other not knowing how we are going to get everything done. This is the time in my life where I truly feel that the saying "there aren't enough hours in the day" has been more real and true to us. Or maybe it has turned into "there aren't enough hours in the day so I'll just sacrifice my sleep." That's more like it. But it's all a good busy-- just a bit overwhelming. and sleep depriving.
So we tried this little kite but it just didn't want to stay up in the air. It made us feel better when the super-into-kites-people next to us could barely get their 6 footer kite to stay up. Krew was a bit bummed but we tried to make up with a little scooter ride.
It was still a pleasant day where we could enjoy each other and do nothing. Maybe the wind will cooperate for us next time. I'm feeling like this little kite, just trying to keep up in the air, keep ahead of my never ending to-do list. But good things will come in the wind when we work hard. I'm sure they will!

Kite fails and camera focusing fails ^  hahaha
