My plan today was to spend a lot of time resting. Nathaniel woke up too early again but I just closed his door and let him sit in his bed. Which he did until around 7. We then began our day, eating, them playing, and me reading. I finished my book from last night and started a different one. I spent most of the day relaxing and reading. David played wii.
Nathaniel took his nap, woke up and ate while Jake mowed the lawn.
He liked watching his dad.
Then the two of us went to a local cafe. Had some fruit, sandwich, coffee, and muffin and bought some groceries and came home. Nathaniel wanted to play some Wii too.
But, mostly, he ate the remote.
Then the kids started melting down a bit so we ate some dinner, bath time and Nathaniel is already sleeping and David is in his room, reading. I am about to go back to my book. Plans for tomorrow: more of the same.
Three Things I’m Grateful For:
1. I am grateful for a lot of quiet time.
2. I am grateful for summer fruit. I love fruit and it’s great to have so much of it.
3. I am grateful having a cafe I like nearby. It’s nice to sit outside, feel totally not-rushed and read with my little boy. True luxury.
Two Things David’s Grateful For:
1. my legos!
2. playing wii.
3. daddy.
“Nathaniel woke up too early again but I just closed his door and let him sit in his bed.”
Did he make a fuss at being left on his own? If not, this sounds like a plan to give yourself more time in the mornings.
for a few minutes, he’s do a little scream every minute or so (mostly to say “hey i am awake”) but then he quieted down. so i try it off and on now 🙂
