Mondays are Better when They're on Tuesday!!
So, having a nice 3 day weekend (where one of the days I literally stayed in my pj's all day) to re-coupe is really best for everybody. As my day started at 6am I was expecting the usual sibling fighting, yelling at the kids a hundred times to turn off the wii and complete their morning list, and having Madison (my oldest) follow me around the house all morning where I trip on her every time I turn around. BUT to my surprise the girls got up before I did and proceeded to start eating breakfast and getting ready. The day only got better from there. My youngest (my only boy) started his first day of pre-k where I got in a 2 mile walk while he was there. Homework went smoothly, the kids played together great while I got dinner done, and bedtime was perfectly quiet. And we finished off the day without one kid getting put into time-out!! Can it be? Was there something in the water today? Was it a shift in the universe? Or did the kids really just feel refreshed after a 3-day weekend? Whatever it was I will be praying for it to happen daily!!! OH!!! And my 1st grader got the 1st grade word whiz award being the first kid in her class to complete the first 6 Fry's reading lists which is 120 words (she knows all 12 lists 240 words but the teacher only tested her on the first 6) and she got a cool Dog Tag to wear proudly!!!
