Little days of grace...

Ok, so I've told you before, I'm really good at planning...not great on the follow through. But, I'm trying, I'm really trying. My new "plan" is about organizing and efficiency, two things that have escaped me for many a year now. So, I have been getting out of bed at 5 in the morning. Granted, it's only day 7, but so far so good...ask me again in a couple of weeks. But the awesome thing about getting up so early is that I feel like I can actually get some stuff done before the house wakes up--which is helpful, because it leaves more time for the fun stuff during the day...and besides being completely done in by about 9PM, I think it is making me a little less stressed out about the days.

And today was a good day. I have been waking everyone up in the morning so we can have breakfast together, which is great. Jake gave us a "rehearsal" version of his Curious George book report. We built ships and tents. Nick and Daryn had a little afternoon adventure. We went to Daryn's office for awhile and then off the library. It is so exciting to me to watch a love of reading developing in sweet Jake...there was a pile of books at the on the floor by his bed as he drifted off to sleep.

I love these little days of grace. Smiles and giggles and snippets of sunshine. They are passing, they are passing, these little babies of mine.
