So today is H’s first day of vacation. Not technically summer vacation because a) it isn’t summer and b) it’s only one month as opposed to three. So I guess it’s just “break” or something. Lord knows. Lucky stinker doesn’t have to go back until after the first week of November (a singularly awesome week for him that includes his birthday *and* a day off for Veteran’s Day). But never fear, a couple weeks later he gets two days off for Thanksgiving and THEN a few weeks after that 2 weeks for Christmas vacation! Then you’d think he’d be in for a long haul right? NOPE! He’s off for all of February too. I won’t even go into the lackadaisical school schedule in the spring.
However, the poor thing has a cold. Ironically enough, I started noticing the symptoms Friday after I picked him up from school. He was particularly bad off yesterday and is mildly better today, not sleeping near enough. It hasn’t been too hard to keep him busy today. I got him a buttload of legos to work on for the month and after lunch today he helped me make cookies. Mmm… cookies.
I shudder for my work schedule this month though. I’m going to have to drop everything at a moments notice to go play Hot Wheels or Candyland. :) Oh darn!
This is me. I'm a thirtysomething stay at home mom to three kids. For years I was a stay at home mom to one kid and trying very hard to have more. It took a LONG time (ie: 6 1/2 years), but finally Liam arrived and charmed us with his blue eyes and ginormous, round head. Then we got a shock: I was pregnant again and this time it was a GIRL. Our hearts and home are full at last and now that we're done having babies, we get to relax (snort) and watch them grow (not too fast now, you hear?). Thanks for coming by, feel free to dip into my archives, read my About and History pages (just don't do Jackson's Story without tissues!) and make yourself at home.
