Time off is good. We like it. No homework to finish (or forget at home), no steady stream of lunch containers to wash, no need to get dressed in the morning if we don't want to. Of course, everyone starts getting restless around 3 pm so the bribing of people to play nice begins and then there are the constant requests for food that just about do me in but… it's a fair trade sometimes.
The beginning of the week was warm and sunny and filled with baseball and soccer and sitting on the porch. It's ending more like a typical rainy week in March—mostly with drawing and playing inside with paper airplanes. (If you're wondering, the above drawing is a self-portrait of Perry taking care of a baby that turned green because he ate too many leaves.)
Enjoy your weekend, everyone!
