I am only a few months away from turning 55.
I have 21 years left if I live to the national age of death.
That means I have 1,092 batches of blueberry muffins left.
Time can be measured in so many different ways. Our lives are filled with milestones, beginnings and endings. At times our lives seem so routine, while at other times it feels like chaos rules. We feel anger. We laugh. There is pain and discovery. There is life.
But time moves forward. In two years I will have only one child left living at home, and less than a thousand batches of blueberry muffins to make.
Honestly, as I consider these upcoming milestones, I am sad, reflective, and grateful that I have built a tradition that my life, my children’s life, could anchor to in good and troubled times. No matter what time has in store for me, for my family, we have at least 1,092 batches of blueberry muffins to enjoy.
It is all Connected
