I have a pretty good list of things on the docket for today, and I am SO fortunate to have had help this morning! When I got back from taking Dekker to school, my dishwasher was unloaded, reloading, and running. Quickly after that, my floor was swept. The kids really got into that one.
Child labour? Lol! Not even 😉 They weren’t even asked, but they were willing participants. It was SO cute, and pretty productive! Win!
Once a few jobs were taken care of, the kids were occupied with stories and crafts. I ran upstairs and folded a few hampers of laundry, tidied up my en suite, and finally found a few places for things. I threw away a bunch of garbage that was accumulating and made some general plans to get our room back in order. I don’t know about you guys, but when I tidy any area of my house, the stuff that doesn’t really have a home gets dumped into our room. Our lovely little sanctuary quickly turns into a huge mess, and I’m feeling a bit flustered trying to get it organized now. But today was an awesome start!
Still to accomplish today is hopefully another load of dishes, a load of laundry, and putting away the laundry that I folded this morning. Beyond house stuff, we have a parent/teacher chat after school and I will attend a meeting at church tonight during kids club. I need to drop by my mom’s at some point today as well, and I know someone is dropping something off at my place too. Hopefully we all coordinate and no one misses anyone else! Maybe after that, there will be time for sleep!
Its currently nap time, and my littlest love who went down like a DREAM seems to have caught a second wind and is just talking non-stop in his room, not even a little bit asleep, whereas he was nodding off during lunch. He’s quite happy in there, so I’ll leave him to it for a while and hope he makes his way into dreamland. He will be a MESS if he doesn’t nap at all! Yikes!
While I wait to see how that will play out, I will be in my bed, eating rice krispie chocolate.
