I have two more days in this week and my todo list is still large, albeit getting smaller. Today was a quiet and productive day for the most part. I have been coaching myself not to stress. So far it’s only working so so.
This afternoon David had a classmate come over for a play date. Nathaniel took the opportunity to play, too.
David was mostly well-behaved. The little girl didn’t want to play Wii (though her dad did) so he nicely turned it off to play with her instead.
Nathaniel spent a lot of time making messes over and over. When we cleaned, he’d cry and then dump the whole thing back on the floor. He dislikes neatness maybe?
It was fun to see them all play together, though. Maggie’s sister joined us a while later, too and it was sort of like the feeling one must have with four kids. Overwhelming but also a lot of fun.
Tonight is mom’s night out for David’s class. This has been a very social week for me. I am a homebody so it’s taking a toll on me as well but I feel like I should go out more so I am making myself go to the events. Let’s see how tonight turns out.
Three Things I’m Grateful For:
1. I am grateful that I took Nathaniel to the doctor today just to be 100% he’s ok. He still has a runny nose and some more small symptoms now but he is perfectly ok. No infections, nothing in the ear or chest. Good to know before I go since I will be worried no matter what. But at least less so this way.
2. I am grateful that I get to go out tonight. Maybe I’ll make friends with one of the moms.
3. I am thankful that I get to watch Glee tonight. We were out late last night so I’ve been saving it!
