The joy of a shift worker... holidays, weekends, family time are often non-existent. This weekend for instance, I'm working nights Friday, Saturday and Sunday. Most of my family will be back to work Monday, so we are celebrating the holiday the following weekend. My kids are also away at their dads for the weekend, so that puts a damper on things as well.
I found joy today in hiding some eggs around the house for the return of my kids. I'm eager to hear their squeals of delight as they find hidden treats from the Easter Bunny. The weather is starting to warm up & we are slowing getting rid of all the ice from the recent storm.
Things are looking up.
So as I'm getting ready for night #2 of this holiday weekend, I ask you this - cherish your family time, hold those you love close and let them know what they mean to you. Think of shift workers and their families who sacrifice their family time to help yours in your time of need.
Hoppy Easter!!
