I had to share one of the great pictures that my partner and the kids had taken today. Are they cute, or what?
I see I have failed to mention how nice it is now that school is out and I am able to have dinner with my family every night and have my whole three-day weekends with them. Mostly, it is great! The not-so-great part is that about the time I am getting home, they have reached the rough part of the night – cranky, tired, not so much listening anymore. We try to navigate through those rough waters, and enjoy our family time though. Each night ends with bath, kisses, hugs, storytime, and the promise to see them at dinner the next night (or even better, in the morning if it is a “family day.”)
