I Threw My "To-Do" List Out The Window

And this is why:


Well, it's not the only reason why my to-do list for today keeps changing. It all started this morning when my alarm went off at 6am. It was waaaayyyy to cold to get out of bed so I just turned it off and got up when Brad's alarm went off at 6:45am. It was still really, really cold, but one just can't stay in bed all day when the weather is frigid no matter how much one wants to! :) Then while I was cleaning up breakfast, the children had a free moment and they started to play with the Little People. How could I interrupt such engaged, cooperative play? So I just sat down with them (camera in hand) and played too. With the move we haven't done that much lately so it felt good. I'm kind of "schedule gal" and we don't deviate too much in the mornings, but today seemed like a good day to let it all go. The laundry and sheet-changing and sweeping and mopping and office-paper-sorting and grocery shopping (the things previously on my list to do) can always be done later, but good play just has to happen when it happens.


Oh, in case anyone is paying attention to things to things like this, they were playing in Phoebe's room. The lighting makes it look a lot more yellow than it really is...it's more of a soft, creamy yellow. And yes, there are still boxes in the corner. It's one room we haven't really focused on.

Love days like that! :)

It is so nice just to "play" sometimes. We did that yesterday and did do anything all day! It was GREAT!

Hope you're doing well. It will all get done. Enjoy relaxing when you can!
