Day 12

Sometimes when I put the kids to bed I say, "I had a good day with you today," because I did. So I did that with Kate tonight. She looked at me curiously and said, "What did we do?"

Well, we got up, had breakfast, fed Laney, did the Dora puzzle, went to the grocery store, you went with Mommy to get curtains, we had lunch, Grampa came over and put you down for a nap. Then we had an apple snack, went out in the front yard to jump off the stump, went out for a bike ride, you rode your tricycle and said, "look at me!" and "I want Laney to smell my bicycle," yes I realize that makes no sense. Then we played with the soccer ball in the backyard, then we went out to get Mexican food for dinner, and as usual you only ate chips, but then we came home, and you had water, and we got you in your pajamas, and washed up, and I read you Thidwick the Big-Hearted Moose, and then I sang you "Swing on a Star," and you woke me up when I fell asleep before I got to the monkey, and then I told you I had a good day with you today.

And then I said goodnight and you went to sleep.
