This is going to be a terrible excuse of a
double-update because I am fried and need to nap for a while before getting up
and going on day three of my school week.
Mom and Dad’s anniversary began with a
gift-giving wake-up call from their kids.
We followed that up with Tai Chi by the river; Michael stayed and helped
with the special anniversary breakfast; and then we headed for school with
Ethan and Ehlana while Mom and Dad got on with their day too. I had a busy day at school including
cheerleading practice at lunchtime; helped out with the dinner party work after
school; and then Michael came over after football to join in on that
anniversary celebration fun. We babysat
the twins and some cousins and friends while the parents went out to Sheldon’s
for a couple of hours; most of the kids were picked up after that; and Michael
and I only kept Naomi and Aiden with the twins.
We did our homework late; had some cuddle time after the kids went to
sleep; and I did my family business and language studies after that while
Michael had a nap. We wrapped up our
night with a sofa sleepover – though for me; that was more of a sofa nap-over.
Today, we had four kids to get ready for
school; a fun day at school; and I had band practice and teen praise team
practice on either side of dinner at home.
Mom and Dad did absolutely nothing at the Inn while on their hometown,
five-star sleepover – that they could tell us about. I’m glad they had fun yesterday, but it was
back to work for them today; and ditto that for me. After we got home from the church, Michael
and I needed to do our homework; Mom did a Magi lesson with us; and then I had
hours of work and studying to do after Michael went home.
That’s why I’m exhausted – and why I’m also
out of here and heading off to nap mode; so, until next time...
...May the Magi Force be with you!
