Daily Diary – June 26 2011

I am always sad when the weekend is over. Even though I love my job and am really lucky and grateful to have it and to get to do it at home, I still love being with my kids and doing art and getting to just have fun. Alas, all good things must come to an end. Anyhow, our day was wonderful and uneventful. We played in the morning. I am still working on Soul Restoration 2 and Nathaniel is playing with his stickers.

David spent the whole morning building his last lego set.

And then when I asked him to pose with it, this is what I got.

We didn’t really do much else. We took a walk, read together, played together, played on our own, and laughed a lot.

Then they took baths, read a bit, giggled a bit and the little one went down. Then David read some of his new book to me and it was so wonderful to hear him read out loud to me. I am so grateful. Now they are in bed and I have just a little more to do in my Soul Restoration book. I also have to do my July newsletter and free downloadables. A few more items on my todo list might ideally get done tonight. And maybe, just maybe, the huge pile of laundry upstairs might get folded, too.

If I am lucky.

Three Things I’m Grateful For:
1. I am grateful that David read to me. It’s amazing to get to hear your son read. I love it.
2. I am grateful that I’ve had a lovely weekend filled with art and family time. I feel so very lucky and thankful.
3. I am grateful that I did none of my todo list items this weekend but I still feel fulfilled and calm and happy.

Three Things David’s Grateful For:
1. I am grateful that I built the Woody’s round-up lego. {* his pick for the journal}
2. I am grateful that Daddy’s coming home tomorrow.
3. I am grateful that I read four chapters in the Magic Tree House book to mommy.
