One of Those Days

Today has been one of those days, one of those weeks rather. I have had a difficult time dragging myself back off of Christmas vacation. Not that it was much of a vacation. I went from the everyday of cooking and cleaning for my family to doing a whole lot more cooking and cleaning for a whole lot more family. It was a good Christmas but after working SO hard to achieve our little family, it definitely was not a time of rest and rejuvenation. And as always the world spins on so just as we were getting used to lazy mornings we are already back to school! (and um, some one has a bad attitude) Yep it’s the teacher and that’s not a good thing. So this post is looking back at one of those days a few weeks ago where everything flows effortless and all is joy. Our days are endless cycles of learn or accomplish something – refuel – clean up the mess – and back to trying to be productive until the next pit stop. This day Jeremiah found a big boy water bottle which he covered the living room with and also had a great time covering the kitchen with yogurt. The boys assembled and colored a cardboard rocket ship and then watched part of Apollo 13 from inside of it to tie in with our physics lesson. Then to top of the fun and festivities Aaron made Dad a homemade basketball goal for Christmas and wrapped it most spectacularly! Does it get any better than that?

Sooooo I am going to try to get myself motivated and thank God for the LONG days filled with so many little treasures.
