I was a bit surprised when I looked at the clock and it was 4:00 pm. I did my usual, "Oh, crap, what am I going to tell Greg I did today because I haven't done anything." Not that Greg cares. I just like to feel like I have something to show for my day. I start rehearsing what I'd done today and realized, quite happily, that I had just spent nearly two-and-a-half hours holding a child. It was fabulous. One of those savor momentsssss (it was two-and-a-half hours, that deserves more than one "s"). Starting at 2 pm, I rocked Alice to sleep; read stories with Rex and then cuddled with him until we both fell asleep; woke up to Alice complaining so I cuddled with her and nursed her for a while then rocked her a bit and tired to get her to go back to sleep; then I woke Rex up and he laid on my lap for a while until he was really ready to be awake; then Alice complained again, so she sat on my lap while I played Memory with Rex. It was a good day, even if I didn't get anything done.
(As a side note, I didn't have plans to get anything anyway so there.)
