Normal weather: January in Michigan, 20's and overcast
Normal schedule: kids in preschool, Hubs traveling, me doing housework at home with C.
Normal kids: all seem healthy and behaving relatively well.
Normal me: broken tooth is temporarily fixed. That last post was nutty because I was feeling pretty nutty and dreading that afternoon's dentist appointment which DID result in me needing a crown (boo hoo for me, right?)
I know this about myself, but on days like today it's so clear: I am a creature of habit and routine. So are my kids. We all enjoy a break but 3 weeks is way too long! We were all coming a little bit unglued by the end of it; thank goodness for the Legos they got for Christmas. I've built more Legos in the last two weeks than I have in my whole life, but I'm okay with that, really. I kind of like them, actually. My kids stay focused, relatively still and quiet, learning hand-eye coordination, reading skills, construction techniques...all kinds of good stuff.
I'm happy to say that we are back to our regularly scheduled programming, which a change in our sports season. M and N will be taking a Tumble Bears gymnastics class instead of swimming. They are very excited about their first day tomorrow (last week's first day was cancelled due to weather).
So am I!
