I caved in today I cant really remember where it all fell apart but lets retrace my steps. Well it all started off with me enjoying my first cup of coffee in a quiet house, so desperately wanting to savor that moment of peacefulness before the chaos starts and the children awake. So I sipped and stared out the window hoping if I kept very quiet nobody would wake. Well I then justified that if I let them all sleep in I could do all the lunch packing, house cleaning, and breakfast preparing before they awake. I slowly and quietly did all this a little to slow and realised that I needed to let them sleep just a little bit more and make more coffee and maybe even get myself ready before they awake. Maybe I ll just write my day care kid a note explaining Hayden missed the buss so I can drive him to school and then I get 30 more minutes. Well that just what I did, no rush or dog walking and running to the buss on my Friday morning! Just slowly sipping coffee, chatting and laughing with my kids and maybe a little cartoon watching. Well then my day care kid was late and I enjoyed just pretending there was no to do list pending, no kids coming I got to rush and do this or that, and I could just sit and enjoy Hunter and breakfast. The child arrives and I treat the rest of the day like a home day not a day care day, we go for a long dog walk, parks play, and late lunch and the boys sleep 3 hours while I catch up on emails and packing. Okay now its time to turn today around and get started I start dinner, oh dinner. That's where it all went wrong it turned in to a brown mushy mess, Hayden took one look and said I am not eating that. Okay how about Sushi tonight were going out, of course that is taken well. We had a great dinner together everyone walked away full and content. We decide to play at the park witch so happens to be adjacent to the liquor store how convenient, that bottle of wine calls my name, I get it. We walk the dog stop at the dock look at the fish. When we get home I met with the realisation the house is a mess, their are toys form the day care everywhere, their are snack dishes in the sink, and laundry piled and what do I think. Oh no my wine is warm, what a shame I want it now, so I do what Doug's Aunt from Bermuda taught me I put and Ice Cube in it, put the kids to bed and sip and enjoy. No so bad for a Friday until I wake up Saturday met with Fridays mess.
Only 39 more days to go.
Beautiful Moment brought to you by Hayden and Hunter.........
Hayden and Hunter were sitting in the stroller on our walk tonight and Hayden began to sing "Listen to the water" and Hunter decided to join in of course not knowing the words but then tune meet babble and the to of them made music to my ears.
