Do you hear that? . It’s the echo of my kids’ chatter. Except unlike a typical echo where the sound dissipates with time, the noise reverberates and gets louder. . This morning, Hennie (my pre-tween) shouted, “Mom! The flowers we saw yesterday in the garden have multiplied! There are like three more blossoms.” . I replied with all the gusto a coffee’s-still-brewing mom could: “Oh cool.” . We trekked outside to hurriedly catch the bus, and I unknowingly grazed the yellow pops of spring with my billowy sweatpants. . The kids boarded the bus. I air-kissed them goodbye as they looked down at me through the heavily tinted windows. . At home, inside, in the quiet, I heard the echo of Hennie’s spirited statement. . I’ll continue to hear her all day, until she returns home and we can acknowledge together the beautiful bunch of yellow flowers gracing our front lawn. . Sometime we don’t hear the noise. We tune it out. . But fortunately for us, as parents, their presence echoes all around us without fail. . It’s the background noise of our life, and it’s beautiful.
