We have a strange phenomenon in our house. Fridays are the worst day. By Friday afternoon both kids are done with it. They are done with school, they are done with morning, they are done with the weekly routine. If I’m honest, we are all like that…but the difference is that Randy and I get that the weekend is here so we can be happy still. Fridays are the worst. We basically just try to survive them. (The days Reed gets sent to the office are usually Fridays too.)
But Monday. Monday is the best day of the week in our house!
By Monday morning both kids are ready to get dressed and get to school. They both have great days at school, and then when we pick them up it is all smiles and ‘Mommy I love you’ and hugging each other. No joke. Every.single.Monday.
Last night was exceptionally awesome. Reed was over the top good. He helped Ali do everything, then he tried to help her to make good choices so she wouldn’t get in trouble at the dinner table. After dinner they both went on the back patio and played together. It was awesome. Then we went for a walk and Reed let Ali sit in his lap to ride in the blue car. (Mommy fail for not taking the camera with us!). To cap it all off, as I was putting Reed to bed he looked up at me, pulled me in for a kiss and said ‘Mommy, I love you’. Then he told me he was ready for bed. Who is this child…and can he come back another day??? Can everyday be a Monday???
That boy. Gotta love him.
