I’m Glad We Danced

What I’m about to show you is an oldie, but a goodie. Last winter I was stuck at home with a newborn who didn’t sleep, a toddler who had daily multiple tantrums of rage, my butt and gut and boobs were huge and drooping, and I was clawing my way through the Real Estate course. It was a long few months. I listened to a lot of Mumford & Sons that year and their songs will always take me back to that time: when I was soft and weary, trying my best to make it through. I look at this now (it’s long, you don’t have to watch the whole thing but things get real about 40 seconds in) and see how much has happened in a year: Karenna doesn’t fit in those jammies anymore, those jeans are four sizes too big for me now, I am a Realtor. The time passes so quickly, which is why you’ve got to take the time to dance.

  • Reminds me of how Dad would dance around the kitchen with you.Different song though–I can’t remember who the group was but the refrain went,”you’re gonna be you’re gonna be my number one”.How come I have never seen this video before?
