Daily Diary – February 18 2011

Well this week is over! It was relatively painful and yet I still got a bunch accomplished both at work and here. Layouts done, portraits, sketches, art journaling. All done done done. And the plans for the weekend and relatively light which means i can work on my last homework for Soul Restoration. I can do more sketching and drawing and a ton of journaling. I haven’t been journaling nearly enough.

The kids were both at home today. But they spent most of the day quietly playing.

And being nice to me.

Here’s when David realizes that Nathaniel was actually pulling out the stickers on David’s trucks.

He played on the computer. He also played with legos. We read our book together. We’re a bit behind on the book, trying to catch up.

Nathaniel played most of the day. He wouldn’t nap but he was quiet until around 4pm.

Very preoccupied and working hard. I think he liked having David around.

Late afternoon he started getting cranky. I am guessing from not having taken a nap. But then Daddy came home and saved the day as he always does. He’s the very very best. I am off to watch some TV and relax and maybe draw a bit. I will tend to my class and the comments here this weekend. When I feel less exhausted.

Three Things I’m Grateful For:
1. I am grateful for a three-day weekend. I need this one.
2. I am grateful that I’ve completed my biggest todo list item for the weekend already.
3. I am grateful that I have no plans at all for this weekend. This means lots of family time.

3. I am grateful that i got to play on the computer
