(Our first day on the new schedule—M and SBJ home with me today)
2:27 p.m. — Wow, it looks like both children will be napping at the same time!
2:32 p.m — Oops. Never mind.
3:13 p.m. — SBJ is asleep upstairs, M is downstairs with Mr. Rogers—might I be able to sit here in the living room and read a little of yesterday’s paper?
3:14 p.m. — Umm, no.
I did manage to read half an article. I also folded half a load of laundry, put half the dishes away, and put a half-assed dinner in the Crock Pot. And had a whole lot of fun with these sweet children. (And thank you clergypal S for visiting and bringing lunch!)
Wish me luck tomorrow.

What are you doing with the rest of the rump roast?
RM…I have been thinking about you a great deal today. One piece at a time it will all work out. You are a great mom! And a great pastor! How blessed we all are to have you.
Keith…hilarious!
Thought of you today…your journal sounds familiar!
Nice stockings, though!
Yeah, sounds familiar. Kids come equipped for a sophisticated anti-maternal literacy campaign. I think they have to take an oath or something.
