Today was a day (like many others) that I tried to pack in to many things before lunch time. That is why lunch didn't happen until 1:30. Thankfully the kids were fine. We just were all sick of running around. I always try to do AT LEAST one educational thing in the morning and we were lucky to have some time at the library this morning. A great plce for kids to easily get in learning and love of knowledge. So happy that, so far, they both have that!

When Jay got home, we were both kind of at the point of tired and just wishing we could sit, and well, sit. The kids were kind of on edge and just one of those evenings I felt sad for the kiddos that we probably weren't much fun for them (in all fairness, they really weren't that much fun either!).

Jay re-created a great sandwich that he had when he was out of town - see there are some benefits to going out of town. The cuisine in Michigan is devine! No really, great sandwich.

After the girls were put to bed, Jay put on the tv concert by Darius Rucker (fromerly of Hootie and the Blowfish, now doing country music). He has the song "It won't be like this for long." It was so appropriate to listen to tonight. Waking up tired when they are babies - it won't be like this for long, dropping them off at preschool - it won't be like this for long, she probably will think she hates you as a teenager - it won't be like this for long.....the joy of the kids, that will hopefully be around forever!
