We were sitting at the table writing Valentines when Cole and Anna Mae told me the felt as if they live in a giant snow globe.
Anna Mae is currently crying because her fingers hurt too much to keep writing her name on the Valentines. It occures to me that the grouchy feeling of “giving up” could be due to the weather. She is going to “take a stink’in break.” That’s the spirit of love and sweetness Anna – Not! Ugh!
Another thought from today… every morning I rush around like mad trying to get the kids to school on time. This gets more and more difficult as the winter drags on. Show boots and mittens and warming the car have all lost their novelity and at some point this morning I began thinking about what would happen if we were late… the kids would get a tardy slip – then what? I couldn’t come up with anything else either – so I decided to slow down. We coasted in right before the last bell and in the end I was a better mom because of it. So there you go – I may never be on time again.
At noon today I watched the news and the nice weatherman said the snow was ending and it would be clear by early afternoon. It’s 5:00 p.m. and they just called off my book study for the third week due to snow. I’m tempted to keep my sitter and go buy diapers all my myself…
Grace took the time to throw all her food off her highchair tray so that before I get a chance to clean it up she can eat it off the floor – nice…
Truman is busy with his new birthday toys. I havn’t seen him all day.
Honestly, I can take no more…
That’s it… DANCE PARTY! Truman turn on ABBA, Cole get the dish towels to swing over your head, and Anna Mae dry your eyes – if we are all going to lose it – at least we can laugh at ourselves on the way 🙂
