My favorite thing?
Aug 24th 2006EbenezerUnCategorized
Okay, so today was day one of this year’s Mother’s Day Out and Speedy actually slept! Yes, you read that correctly, HE SLEPT at MDO! Woo Hoo for Speedster! He cried when I left him there but he settled down pretty quickly. I felt a little guilty - there were several moms wiping away tears up and down the halls and I felt like I should have felt bad. BUT I DIDN’T! I knew he would have a lot of fun and I knew he’d be just fine. I also knew I’d have some fun…..hee hee hee
So anyway, I talked to Brigitte after the kids had been there for a couple of hours and she filled me in on what she’d accomplished. But you want to know what her FAVORITE thing was? And this is a quote, or almost anyway, “My favorite thing I’ve done today is poop!” Geez, Brig, you gotta get out more.
I asked Speedy if he had fun and he said, “yeah”. I said, “do you want to go back next week?” and He said, “YESSSSSSSSSSS!” So I guess he liked it.
What did I get accomplished on my first MDO day? Nada. Zip. Zilch. Zero. And it was fantastic.

You got a lot done - you took care of yourself. And recharging your mental state is one of the most amazing things to do when the kids aren’t around.
When the boys were at the preschool last year, I made it a point to do things I couldn’t get done with them around - like walking 8 miles or going to lunch with friends or painting or whatever. Cleaning? Nah - because I could clean with the kids around. It made the time that much better!
