1. The day started at 8:00 am, instead of 7:00. Despite losing that hour, I was happy the boys were tricked into sleeping until 8:00.
This will sound backwards, but I was delighted when Finn ended up stuck in his room for the better part of an hour this morning, and it adds two items to my list.
2. When he refused to get dressed, Finn gained the chance to be reminded that listening to Mama and Papa is a requirement. He wasn't allowed out of his room until he was dressed and ready to be nice. Since this wasn't a high-stakes-we-have-to-get-out-of-the-house situation, it was surprisingly not stressful to deal with his miserable behavior.
3. I got to lay in bed and read my book while waiting for him to comply.
4. I started and finished the laundry all in one day.
5. We embraced the warm weather and walked (Finn rode his bike, Wylie rode in the jogging stroller) to Buzz Cafe for lunch. A perfect outing.
6. Wylie has been saying "Papa" over and over and over again and the way he says it just makes me smile.
7. Finn did not watch any TV today--a small miracle.
8. Jason and I enjoyed some downtime on the front porch while Wylie did some "walking practice" and Finn finished his nap. We started a spring/summer house projects to do list. I love when Jason gets inspired to tackle house projects!
9. For dessert--leftover mini-chocolate and hazelnut cheesecakes made for Dad's birthday.
10. After books, Finn felt my forehead and told me I felt warm and should stay in bed, for days and days, and that he would take care of me and bring me cookies. I would absolutely love to take him up on that offer!
