Today

Today I:

bathed, fed and dressed Elli and got her on the bus

fed the kids leftover pizza for breakfast

had a family council to plan the next few days

read with Sophi

had Lexi's best friend over for a few hours

cleaned, cleaned, cleaned (though you certainly wouldn't know now)

made caramel popcorn
settled a few domestic disputes

went to Taylor's Court of Honor

made glittery snowflakes with the littles

took Xander and Taylor to do their Christmas shopping

made sloppy joes

stayed in my pj's until 1:00

helped Jesi and Graci deep clean their room

was in tears over the bags of things they were ready to get rid of-- so hard to watch them grow up!

took Sophi to the bathroom about a jillion times

watched "The Grinch" with the big kids

ate a lot of junk food

read lots of Christmas cards/letters

visited with good friends

had sweet conversations with each of my kids

took a long, hot shower

I love having the kids home for Christmas break!
