Busy Wednesday today! Today was a day full of business and fun. I had a client at 8:30 this morning, so we were up and running, and out the door pretty early today. The kids were doing well getting ready except for a couple of hiccups...pretty funny ones actually. Joel came to me at one point and said, "Ok Mom, so far Connor has said THREE wrong things to me!" The first one was that Connor was sitting on Joel's head and when Joel asked Connor to get off, Connor told him "no." That pretty much did me in and poor Joel tried so hard to tell me the second and third things....can you blame this mom for getting a laugh in? I did show good listening though and Joel was happy in the end that I agreed it was NOT nice to sit on people's heads.
After my morning shift at work, I went to my dad's work to borrow his laminator and cutting board. I made 17 Busy Bags for an exchange I had tonight. It was a lot of fun getting creative. I miss that part of me! It was also nice to see my dad again and get a chance to talk.
After lunch, I picked up Joel from school. The ducklings in his class had hatched and some of the parents went in to see them. They were so cute! It was so fun to see Joel so excited and show me each of the duckling's items and home. Did you know they put marbles in the drinking water so the ducks won't fall in and drown? Joel taught me that....pretty neat!
After work this evening, I got the kids in a bath, fed them dinner, Joel helped me stuff the Busy Bags and then the boys went to bed. I headed over and did the Busy Bag exchange. It was like getting presents on Christmas Eve! It was so fun getting other people's creations and I can't wait for the kids to try out some of the other crafts! It was also really nice to get a chance to talk to people from my congregation. We all had such a fun time. What a nice mom time away, and doing something fun for the kids...a good way to get together with other moms AND feel like you are doing something for the kids all at the same time!
I got home and stored by bag of bags lol. I am going to slowly break out a different busy bag for the kids to play with. It should be fun! I am so grateful for fun times!
It was a great night and there were so many fun, happy, moments today. I feel very uplifted from making crafts and getting out. I am also really looking forward to tomorrow....it is the beginning of the end of my week, AND a special day for David and me :-) Have a good night all!
