Sunshine and Teardrops

A very dear friend of mine sent me a text message in the morning saying she was taking her son to the park and if I wanted to join them. At first I was a bit hesitant because I will be taking my son and baby daughter with me and this will be the first time I will be doing it on my own. On top of that, the sleepless nights were weighing me down. I have to admit I considered just staying home but it was such a lovely day outside that I readily agreed. I figured if I don't get up and go now, I may just never do it.

Boy was I glad I agreed! The sun was out in full force and was such a beautiful warm day for winter. My son played in the playground and ran around, enjoying himself. My daughter slept in the pram the whole time. My parents even joined us as well so they could see the grand kids. My mother and I had a talk which lead me to cry and vent and basically voiced out some unsaid things. Problems that arose are no where near resolved but I was glad to say a bit of my piece. I hope she listened and went away thinking about what I had said.

After two hours, we went home to have a late lunch.

Sunshine and teardrops were what I needed on that sunny day. And a friend and parents who care.
