It was a beautiful day today! The sun was shining. The air was warmer. It was at least warm enough for the puddles to go outside and play. Playing outside is good. Playing outside with a dozen blankets and pillows is good if you are kid. Not so good for mom. I am on the phone and I heard a herd of children go up the stairs and drag down every blanket and pillow from upstairs. All I can think of is the loads of laundry.
Deep breath . . . It has been a busy week with most of my head in another world. While the chili simmered on the stove, I went outside with kids and took pictures of their “house.” Everyone had a place to sleep. The girls said that it was a real house with bedrooms and a living room. It even had a basement. Ben, on the other hand, said that it was house in an airplane. The picture is him flying the airplane and bombing the neighbors.
The kids are in bed and I am hoping that it stays that way. The kids are slow to get back in their routine. It is only Wednesday but I hope that it won’t take until next Wednesday for the routine to become “routine.” I have high hopes.
