With work being so crazy, and technically only working one day a week, something had to give.
That thing has been any free moment I have when I’m at home. And, unfortunately, this is coming out of my parenting hours. Specifically, that quiet time while Ellery sleeps and I could be hanging with Shep.
Now that things have slowed down (a bit), I’m vowing to close the laptop in the early afternoon and book a bit of time with my middle child.
Today? Board games! We started with the snowman game (which I’d link to if I could find it anywhere), and then on to The Orchard. Both are Haba games, which I can’t say enough amazing things about.
I’m enjoying this brief respite before all the crazy of the holidays kicks in and any sense of schedule and free time gets thrown to the wolves.
But in the meantime? Yay, snowmen!
