A Coop in the Dark

After years of trying to set routines and create predictability for my kids (to a questionable degree of success), I am now trying to open up to the opposite.  Our habits and our noise sure give a me sense of security, but what I value now is energy.  And bravery.  To meet our days, and to break out of safe spaces.

So if June and I have the energy to paint a chicken coop in the dark, then great.  A bedtime routine, and darkness, need not stand in the way.  Tonight, it's the coop.  Tomorrow, hopefully we will look beyond our back yard.
