Today Ammon and Clarissa spent a lot of time playing by the kitchen sink. I was distracted on my computer and didn’t realize Ammon was actually using the sink hose to flood the kitchen. When I looked up, there was water everywhere! I cleaned it right up, but these kids were so happy making this mischief, I couldn’t stay mad at them. (I took the picture below before they made the big mess.)
Mary was darling and perfect all day today. When she came home from school, she ate her dinner quickly, skipped to the piano, did her practice, completed her homework right after that, helped me out when I needed a towel but couldn’t leave the babies in the bath, and just was all around darling beyond belief.
Lydia also made me proud because she bounced into the car after school and declared she had had a good day even though a lot of things had gone wrong. I was so proud of that great attitude!!
Today was full of friendship. I called my friend Julie, video chatted with my friend Jen, texted with my friend Thalia, and post-messaged some other friends. I’ve been neglecting Abe, though, so I’m hoping things will slow down and I can start focusing more on him.
