The Grind

Back to the ole' grind today. Overall, it was a good day. My principal called in sick, so it was just me to handle all the drama. I mean, it's nice when she's not there, because I don't have to deal with her moodiness, but crazy because I am so busy. It makes the day pass by quickly though so I can come home to my boys. Chris took a half day to come home and get our new water heater installed.... I made a dinner and we relaxed for a bit. Chris was like super duper husband tonight, helping out more than he usually does.... he bathed Jake, did all the dishes, cleaned the kitchen, and is now reading Jake stories. I can over hear him reading with SUCH enthusiasm and it makes my heart smile. I know he is tired, but he always puts forth 110% when he reads to him. He is captivating. I never thought that him reading stories would make me love him more. It's funny how different things make me happy as I get older. Jake asked me today, "Where do you work, momma?" I replied "At a school" and he just looked at me. I said, "Momma used to be a teacher, but now she's a principal" and he smiled. He said, "Oh, so you help all the teachers!" What an intelligent little boy. He is so smart!! :-) I've never told him that before... I wonder if they discussed it at his preschool. He had another excellent day with no accidents! YEAH!! I'm off to shower, pack my food for tomorrow, and (try to) relax. I've been doing well on the eating front...just have to make sure to plan ahead. xoxo
