Feeling Refreshed!

Yesterday wore me out. I don't know how other than getting up at 4am, but it did. I was not a very helpful Mom to my kids. I barely had enough energy to go over Sveta's homework and address two of my children's discipline issues--- which is a whole 'nother post I have been putting off writing about.

So, I was glad to see that I was the only one that Dennis wanted. It was a good excuse to snuggle on the couch with my little boy and fall asleep. Three of my girls made pancakes for dinner and cleaned up the kitchen afterward. Have I told you lately, how awesome my kids are?

Anyway, back to the snuggling part with Dennis. He would not fall asleep unless our faces were touching. His nose was pressed into my cheek so that he felt my warm breath on him. One daughter commented how it must be yucky having to smell Dennis' breath. Awww, how wrong she is! I told her that she will not understand how heavenly this is until she has her own child. She looked at me with doubt like I was a bit looney.

Dennis got up to eat, while I continued to sleep.

Little did I know they took this attractive picture of me.

Today is a much better day! I have my energy back and so does Dennis!
