Last night before the kids went to bed I begged...please sleep in. I woke up this morning to a miniature golf course made in the upstairs hallway..way too much fun for them, not me. They ignored my request:)
I pulled it together, got up and made them a chocolate chip pancake breakfast with scrambled eggs and bacon...all before I made my pot of decaf coffee.
Katy, who is only 7, kept asking, what are we going to do today? My initial response was, I've got to hand wash all the dishes that have piled up, since the dishwasher hates me right now.
My niece Kiley came to the rescue. Ben had practice at 6 tonight and she said they, meaning Erich, her husband, and T.J, my nephew, took the girls bowling while Ben was gone.
I'm at the Gillaspey household tonight, the older girls will be picked up at 5 something in the morning for swim practice, not my thing to wake up and drive them to their home at 4:30 am so we moved in.
I tucked Katy into bed tonight, asked her to read me a few stories..she picked out some Biscuit books, I easily could have fallen asleep listening to an almost 2nd grader, reading to me, as I laid in bed with her. Sometimes I think we forget about the youngest one, they seem to just go with the flow. Asking her to read to me was by far the best part about my day:)
