Writing about all the big & little things

First day of 2019

Here we go.  A new day.  A new year.

I’ve let go of setting resolutions.  But I do enjoy a fresh start.  Actually, what I think I enjoy most is a fresh new calendar. I love the new pictures and clean slate that a new year brings.

Tomorrow the kids go back to school.  We’ve had a fantastic break, doing nothing spectacular but loving it.  But I also know how much we will love getting back into the normal routine of school and work again tomorrow.  And yes, even the kids will love it.  Even if they loudly voice their unhappiness right now.  I know better.

My big accomplishment from break was deep cleaning and purging the kids rooms, basement and my bedroom.  I took two big loads to good will and many, many bags of trash to the garbage bin.  It was wonderful.

Another big accomplishment was the boys finally getting a bunk bed.  Josiah has been anxiously awaiting this day for a long time.  Levi isn’t quite ready to transition to a regular bed, but he will this summer when I potty train him.  So for the rest of the winter/spring we decided to simply put his crib under the bed

    What a great idea. I’ll bet they both love their new bed arrangement!
