When I don't worry about the next thing that needs to happen or the next day that is just as busy as this one, I really, really enjoy my days. Here's Thursday's run down that I thought would be horrible and was dreading:
1. Matt's on a trip, so I stayed home a bit later this morning and helped the kids get ready for school (picture day :) which included a bath for Liz, hair styling, and a small fashion melt-down, a re-do of Ben's button fiasco, practicing smiles, handing out picture orders, quick hugs and a scramble out the door.
2. Work- no details necessary!
3. Drive to my home, then drive 15 minutes more while getting details about Z,B,&L's day at school. Get to the elementary to pick up Mona from volleyball practice and have a pretty cool talk with her on the way home.
4. Drop off Mona and Liz, hustle boys for flag football practice while grabbing water bottles on the way out the door.
5. Stay in town to watch football played by tons of local kids TK thru 4th grade (AWESOME!) who are thrilled to be running around in the beautiful weather as it cools down. Have a cool time with some friends who were also hanging out watching the show. Have a cool time with Ben (while waiting for Zach to finish) walking to Caseys for some Gatorade and talking important stuff.
6. Snuggle with Liz so she can tell me the story she learned in Kindergarten "If you give a mouse a cookie" with her puppet. She's got a steel trap memory, by the way!
7. Finish the night with a little light music- Ben is my favorite little guitar player in the entire world!
It's been a great day.
