A Day in My Life

It’s morning.
Sun comes in through the kitchen windows
Right in my eyes
Sink full of the dishes I didn’t do last night
Make lunches for school
Peanut butter, whole grain bread
No jam.
Absolutely NO jam
Juice box or water
Strawberries or grapes
Goldfish or carrot sticks
Coffee, scrambled eggs, waffles from the freezer
Maple Syrup

To the gym
Run a few miles
OR
playdate
OR
morning errands
OR
meeting
OR
whatever else

Toddler naps
Pre-schooler watches Sid the Science Kid
Looney Tunes
Plays
A lot
Legos, puzzles, coloring, Candyland.
Oh good gravy, Candyland
I fold laundry
Tweet
Put laundry away
Check Facebook
Clean dishes, load dishwasher
Wipe counter
Sweep floor
Read some blogs

Sip my now cold coffee
Quick lunch

School pick up time
Everybody shoes
Do you want to walk to get brother
Shoes then
Quickly play Words With Friends while we wait to get out of car
only 15 point play
oh well
walk with littles to get big brother
walk back to car with friends

Afternoon snack
granola bar, raisins, apple slices, milk, water
Boys watch Tom & Jerry
after outside
Riding bikes, trikes, 4-wheeler
sidewalk chalk
blow bubbles
charm the neighbors
Sometimes I capture them with my camera

Dinner

Maybe
Daddy home
kids happy
Mommy too

Homework too
More playing for littles
Baths
Clean smelling kids are the best
books, prayers

Laptop in lap

Lights lower
