Let me start this off by saying I absolutely love my kids. Each and every one of them. We have a great time together most days, do lots of fun things and overall I just know how dull my life would be without them. With that being said…When will the roads be clear enough for school to start back? This snow storm hits just after the kids being out 3 days last week for MLK day and teacher workdays. This week, we’re on day 4 of canceled school.
We’ve had plenty of time to spend together. But, there comes a time when everybody starts getting a little restless. Brothers and sisters start bickering over the tiniest things. Kids start tattling every time another kid moves. Mommy starts feeling the need to go hide in the closet with a carton of chocolate ice cream and a bottle glass of wine. Today is hopefully our last day out of school. Roads seem clear enough and hopefully no more rain in the forecast for a few days, so we should be set for a while.
I decided to embrace our time together today. We decided to have a game day / movie night. Complete with pizza. It really never takes much to entertain kids. They really don’t ask much at this age. A little bit of time and attention goes such a long way. Keeping them busy is the best plan for days when the cabin fever starts setting in. If they are busy and having a good time, they tend to forget about the problems which equals no tattling and no fighting. Yay for mommy! Here are a few shots of us making the most of this (hopefully) last snow day…
