The second week of summer break was long.
We still haven’t figured out the right routine for us and there were a few break-downs.
Both by children and adults.
But we tried to find a happy spot in each day.

June 9: Reading the Sunday ads in the only place his brother can’t bother him.

June 10: sweet little moments on bath night.

June 11: some time to read during nap.

June 12: Play Doh on yet another rainy day.

June 13: Getting out of the house and being good for errands = donut reward.

June 14: The boys make me a lunch of wieners.

June 15: Meeting the new guy.
Even though we are still trying to figure stuff out, we managed to have fun.
We had a playdate with fun neighbors,
made lemon cookies and homemade ice cream,
we held a new baby and played with old friends,
we read books,
we played cards and ate part of a 5-pound Hershey bar,
and we laughed a lot.
So even though patience was lost and frustrations festered,
it was a good week.
