Ya know that really old movie with Michael Keaton and Nicole Kidman? Where he learns he is terminally ill with cancer while his wife is expecting? Oh it is so sad and so good!! I cried for days after watching that. Well, in that movie there's a part where he talks about his deep fear of riding roller coasters. His therapist/healer friend tells him he needs to come to terms with this fear because it analogous to life in general and specifically with raising kids. The healer tells him that learning to love a roller coaster is a way to learn to love life and enjoy the chaos- or at least be o.k. with it. I've thought about this a lot since having children....trying to find meaning and happiness in the chaos.....and every year I get closer and enjoy it more. That's why I love this picture of me and Sienna screaming while riding on this roller coaster together. This was my favorite part of my Mother's Day weekend.
