It was a national holiday in Seoul, so the kids were off school. The day started early with my son's baseball practice all morning. We grabbed Chinese food for lunch, then came home.
Nothing and Everything Happened With Little Drama
The Inner Game of Tennis Is So Good
While the kids did their own thing in the living room, I finished reading The Inner Game of Tennis. Such a good book. There's something about a quiet afternoon at home, everyone doing their own thing but still together, that feels exactly right.
Brick-Oven Pizza and a Walk for Wine
Dinner was brick-oven pizza to go. After the dishes were done, my husband and I went on a walk to pick up some Sancerre. It's a white wine from France's Loire region that I've been obsessed with lately. The kind of errand that doesn't feel like an errand at all.
Peace Comes From the Power of Just Showing Up
Everyone is sleeping now and as I type this, I feel a sense of peace and gratitude. Nothing dramatic happened. No big wins, no crises to manage. Just a family moving through a day together.
Sometimes the best days are the ones where you don't have to try so hard. You show up for the baseball game, you share a meal, you take a walk. The small moments add up.
What a great day.
