It was just for a few hours, but it felt like more. The water was cold, but the day was hot and the sun was glorious. Waves rocked that old dock and the best way to the water will always be a flying leap.
We loaded down that speed boat with children and lifejackets and squeals of summer. Always, on the water, wind and sun in my face and white churned waves underfoot, can I find my space.
Now I just have to keep that feeling of lightness tucked away for those margin-less days when all I want to do is jump in the lake.

I love what Kayse says about how she feels less overwhelmed when she’s said yes to the many things God’s called her to, rather than yes to the many things she thinks she’s supposed to do. I’m mulling over that idea for fall when I have so many tasks on my plate that, truly, have all come to me at this time for this purpose.
Linking up with these lovely ladies…
