For those who are not part of the pick-your-kid-up-in-the-middle-of-the-day club , wait til you get there !
Today was the first day of mid-year break and it was fabulous! Yes, the kids were up before the sun, but there wasn't the usual rush of trying to get cleaned, fed and dressed. However, we still managed to be cleaned, fed and dressed by 9am! But the best part of the day was at 12pm. There was no rush to be somewhere, no rush to complete a task, or thought about starting a task that might run beyond 12pm. As 12pm is generally when I leave home to fetch DD at school. My pre-programmed brain clicked at 11:45, and I realised I had TIME ! Time I don't usually have and I spent it .... with my kids. (Thanks to http://www.positiveparentingsolutions.com/) I gave them each 10 minutes alone. DS wanted to play with some colourful shapes. DD wanted to play with her fairy dolls. And at the end, there was still some time left over for me ..... I spun around the kitchen trying to figure out what to do with MY time ..... laundry ? start lunch ? NO! I did TAEBO 8 min workout !
Today was a good day ...... Algamdulillah
