Home for 44 hours of FUN
By mattsmallbone. Filed in Music, Relationships |
I like the Seattle airport. Free WiFi and comfy chairs. Half of our team are asleep in the comfy chairs. It’s all that we need.
We are getting in to Nashville tonight at about 6pm, and will be home for about 44 hrs before we trundle off to Africa and South America for three more weeks.
You read that right… we will be home for only 44 hrs in the middle of a five week tour. It has been a long time since I have hit the road this hard.
My kids don’t know that I have to leave for tour again… we are still trying to figure out how to break that news.
What I do know is that my family is a very pliable unit. They roll with the punches really well. We have lots of fun together, and I think that this is what makes the difference.
The only real parenting philosophy that we have adopted is that our home is a fun place. We have lots of fun within some clearly defined parameters. I think that this buys me a lot of grace from my wife and kids. I am so thankful that they allow me the freedom to not only ‘live the dream’, but they allow me to do it free of guilt. I owe them everything.
Daddy will be home soon. Get the wrestling cushions out.

Mate, you do a good job with those boys. They love having you home and Mez missed you so much whilst you were away. Have fun on tour. We loved trying to fill in the gap for a bit whilst we were there. blessings
