I love my Mondays.
The day where many head to work and to school and I...
don't.
They are my if I didn't have them you would have to lock me up because I would be so crazy days.
On Mondays I soak up my kids, my hubby, my surroundings...
or at least I try. I try to just take it all in. Oh and I try and do way too much.
Yesterday, I tried not to have any expectations. I knew Kevin would need my help...
to have a shower...
to get dressed...
to get to work if only for a couple of hours...
and then I would have some much needed one-on-one time with my little guy.
We didn't get to the library as I had hoped...
or go strawberry picking...
or plant tomatoes...
but we had a picnic lunch in the back yard...
and played super hero.
I pushed him on the swing.
We cleaned up the playroom which had reached the "enter at your own risk" stage...
and walked to and from school with Charlotte.
And even I amazed myself at dinner, with only 1 steak in the freezer, I pulled off these quesedillas and goopy's homemade salsa and guacamole for four...and everyone loved it.
The day ended with Court's first little league game & ice cream cones.
Such a delicious day...
to pull me through the week ahead.

ReplyDeleteI feel the same way about Fridays. I only work Monday-Thursday, so while everyone is heading off to work on Friday, I'm sitting down with my coffee and paper - in the garden - ahhhh.
ReplyDeleteI'll definitely have to try out those quesadilla's - I love when I can make amazing dishes from little beginnings :)
