The Activities

Today was Mama's day off. We had an early start and got ready to go to daycare. We said good-bye to Auntie E and cousin I and headed into town. We arrived at the same time as our friends C & H, who were flying high since it was H's 3rd birthday today. The kids don't even look back now when I drop them off at daycare.

I headed to the gym for a class and a run and was home to make myself some lunch and do some things around town. I had a meeting in the afternoon and a chiropractor's appointment, so headed out around 1:30pm. I ordered some sushi for us to have for dinner. I usually get a plate of sushi from the grocery store for the kids and after our good sushi in Mexico, I thought I'd get some for myself. I obviously didn't know what to pick as I didn't really like it.

The kids had a good day at daycare and were happy to come home. Papa arrived back from his business trip earlier than I expected so after the usual bedtime shows, we each read a story to the kids separately and tucked them in. They were both asleep quickly, tired from a full day.

Thoughts on the Day

It's amazing how quickly a full day can pass without the kids. I had a great morning at the gym and it was strange to be at home all by myself. I'm used to Papa working from home on Fridays. As always, I never quite get to everything I wanted to do. It felt good to go to my meeting in the afternoon. Keeps the business brain cells moving. We have a busy day tomorrow with birthday parties and painting classes.
