Life is Busy

Normally I like to post about what we've done in relation to preschool on Mondays but . . .Life is busy.  I'm a really good planner but I'm not always a really good doer.  Life seems to get in the way sometimes or I find myself watching my boys play and use their imagination and really don't want to interrupt.  Last week, in particular, they played.  Together. For hours.  Trains, cars, planes, blocks, Lego's.  At one point, I had train tracks running from one end of the house to the other and two little boys having a grand old time.  I chose to let them play, giggle, laugh and . . .tackle each other :-)  I'm working on some ideas for this month and the month of December.  Then, in the cold months of Winter, we'll retreat to the classroom and tackle more book learning :-)  Life is busy but Life is fun. 

Pinterest is my friend . .. and my nemesis.  I love all of the ideas but boy, do I wish I had the hours and supplies to make everything I pin!  I tend to get into idea overload and can't focus on just one project to get done.  I'm working on that problem :-)

Cleaning is over rated :-)  Yes, I want a clean house but I'm tired of cleaning every day . A little here or a little there .. I'm starting to get back to one day of lots of cleaning - at least then, I have one day when everything is picked up :-)  THEN I might have time to work on projects and play with kids :-)

So, that's all for this week . It's a busy week.  I'm preparing to go on a scrapbooking retreat this weekend and, a funeral to attend due to the very unexpected death of a long time family friend.

Enjoy your day!

Good idea girl. Let the boys enjoy their childhood.....by kindergartden it will be work for the rest of their lives. You kids did fine with no "pre-school". Cleaning? Clean good once a week. Pick things up every evening and it is like starting a fresh each day.You are a wonderful wife to Darryl and a wonderful Mom and nothing has to be perfect. And yes, try and have one day to do WHATEVER!!!
