There are few things I consider myself an expert in, but truth be told: if recharging one’s energy with littles underfoot were an Olympic sport (missed opportunity, Greece), I like to think my sister Lara would take home a gold.
Whatever you call it: grandparenting, retiring, mama breaks, “GG” time — it can all feel so, so elusive when you’ve got young kids. More often than not, the moment you’ve found yourself sitting on the sofa with a good book is the moment your children have realized the kitchen faucet sprayer makes for an excellent fireman’s hose.
And so, if you’re in the trenches (or drenches, mothers of said firemen), here are a few photos of Lara with her newest grand-twins to infuse your day with a few exhales here and there.
