It is Wednesday! Next week, this day will be the last day of school for the holidays. I am so looking forward to the days off. Even though the kids have swim every morning at 8 A.M., getting up at 7 is still sleeping in two hours! Strangely enough, we still haven't even finalized our plans with Andrew's family...because there is just so much think about between now and then.
I was off yesterday, and I'm off again today. Catherine had a toe nail removed last week due to an infection, and the toe is more swollen now than it was before. We think she had a reaction to the local anesthesia that was used, but the doctor wants to see her to confirm. I don't mind the time off, although I am spending most of it in the car running around to get things done. I am working in first grade tomorrow, and I am both looking forward to it and dreading it. It will be so much fun, and yet very exhausting all at the same time.
Right now I am sitting in the our family room and our sweet Abby is sleeping at my feet with Lincoln (one of our cats) curled up next to me. I have it mostly dark and the glow of the Christmas tree lights is lovely. I am watching the weather channel and the dishwasher is humming. In these peaceful moments of quiet (and even mundane, and I'm perfectly okay with that!) it is so easy to remember our blessings!
