July 10

We were mostly off doing our own things today. Adam was working in his home office. Abby was at work in Walnut Creek. Isaac was at work at The Dairy. Brady was holed up in his room playing video games. And I was out running errands and then at home working on a project.

But then this evening, after the boys got home from their VBS prep session, there was a brief stint of time when we were all gathered in the family room. We weren't exactly engaged in a shared activity; Adam was working and Abby was (probably; it's hard to tell since only her legs are visible in the photo) on her phone and Brady was watching the A's game on TV and I was on my walking pad. 

But we were all together. And there's value in that; in simply sharing space. So I'm grateful for those late-day moments in the family room.
