Okay! Here we go! I have been DYING to get out. It has been so hard being trapped inside with so many kids day after day. So today, I did it. I only have 3 extras that I didn't give birth to, and they are 17 months, 22 months and 4, so I loaded everyone up, and we all walked CJ, Josh and Julia to school. WHOOOO HOOOOOO!! Have you ANY IDEA how GOOD that felt? No, you don't, so I'll tell you. It was heavenly. Breathing fresh air, even though I could see my breath and the 4 year old that isn't mine wasn't overly excited to be walking- it smelled so good outside. The sun was peeking out, prodding us on, promising to make everything green again really, really soon. Said 4 year old found a patch of grass and pointed it out excitedly- they are dying for spring as much as any of us. The whole state is on it's knees by now...and it's going to reach at least 40 degrees today! HEAVEN!!!! I plan on walking up with all of them to get Julia, too. I'm insane enough to halfway wonder about not bringing the stroller and trying to hold on to the little guys- I want to wear them out GOOD. I've got LAUNDRY to do during nap time, remember? :D
Anyway- do you know what this means? This means that on the days that are "slower", I can LEAVE MY HOUSE WITH ALL THESE KIDS AND GO PLACES AND DO THINGS!!!!!! I can go to the indoor park. I can go to the library! I can probably even manage a little grocery shopping. I AM FREE! FREE! FREE!!!! you have no idea, none- NONE- how good it feels to know that. Or maybe you do, if you put yourself in my shoes, or perhaps you've been here too. We're FREE!! We can go to nature centers! We can visit places! We can sit outside under the tree and do learning time! I! AM! SO! HAPPY!!!!!
Alrighty then. Carry on. It's snack time almost. :) Hot cocoa and cookies if you're interested. They think they've won the lottery that I'm not shoving something halfway healthy into them. :)
Come to the museum!!!!! Come on! We have a whole room you can let them run around and play in, and I'll sit and drink coffee with you!!!!!
ReplyDeleteYES! Next week I'm hauling the clowns to the museum!!!! Oh...wait.....I might save that for 2 Fridays from now when I'm minus the 2 infants. As cute as they are, I'm not sure I want to deal with them on top of the other 4 I'd have in public. :) It's an official date! Can't wait!
