So we just got a new kitchen table because our family is growing and the table we had was too small. It’s a rustic, mango wood table with a bench on one side and chairs on the opposite side.
Every night at dinner, I grin because I love seeing those three boys of mine sitting next to each other on the bench – laughing, telling jokes, recapping their days, and constantly interrupting each other (that and getting up a million times during the meal – we seriously need a solution for that at our house).
During the day, I use the table for my office setup. When my 3 year old is in preschool (two mornings a week) and when the baby is napping, you’ll find me sitting here writing and working. It makes me smile to sit down at this table where I know so many, many memories are being made.
If I look to the left, I can see outside to our backyard and notice nature and the changing of the seasons. Right now I’m loving the colorful leaves. If I look just above my computer, I look into the kitchen where so much of my life revolves as both a mom of four and a dietitian.
Yes, this kitchen table is just the right space for me. What about you? Where do you find yourself working? Where are you most inspired?
