Pretend all day

Aside from my doctor’s appointment, visiting teaching and a late night outdoor flashlight hunt with our neighbors, we stayed inside and played most of the day. I was exhausted for no apparent reason and stayed on the couch. I repeated my new mantra to myself which is “stay accessible.” If I can’t get it together enough to actively engage from an upright position, then at least I can be a reclined resource to my kids.

I took one picture of the girls playing pretend. I figure this represents the way we spent almost the entire day. I also took a video of Lydia singing Mary a belated birthday song she made up. Her lyrics were very penitent about her behavior yesterday.

Playing pretend by the couch. I'm pretty sure we did this until Abe came home.
