Some nights it feels like bedtime will never arrive.
Some nights it feels like I can't stand one.more.minute. of noise.
Some nights I dread all of the work I have to do once Connor finally (finally = 8pm) goes to bed.
But...
Every night, I have to smile just a little bit when I hear Jason say what he always says to Connor at bedtime:
"Have a sweet night." Not a good night. Not sweet dreams.
Have a sweet night.
One of my favorite things. Truly.

Back to School
Today was our first day back from spring break.
I could not be more tired.
On the up side...Connor enjoyed the first grade jokes that accompany April Fool's Day.
Did you know that your shoe is untied???

Easter Day
Connor left a very nice picture for the Easter Bunny. : )
Parents were awakened too early.
Rain turned to sunshine.
Roast beast (Ham) was eaten with Grammie and Grampie.
Connor enjoyed scooter and soccer and strawberry "moose."
A very good day indeed.
P.S. We have enough candy to last us until Halloween. How will I ever stay out of it?

March 2013
It has been a long time since I've posted anything here, but I'm feeling inspired to get started again. If nothing else, I would like to document a bit of what is happening for Connor's sake.
Last week was spring break for Connor and me. We Grampie Jack did a couple of projects around our house. He put two hanging rods in Connor's closet, making it much easier to reach things. So much easier that even Connor can find his clothes! It's a miracle!!! Another project was replacing wire shelves with wooden shelves in our master bathroom. Huge difference! Too bad I didn't get the rest of the room painted over the break, but it will happen soon. I swear.
Connor spent the night with both sets of grandparents over the break. Jason and I had very romantic date nights (e.g., going to the laundry mat to wash dog blankets, visiting our local Walmart, and falling asleep at 7:30 pm). Pretty pathetic, but our little town doesn't offer many date night options.
The rest of spring break was spent puttering. I read a book and did some stitching. Connor played Mine Craft and Mario games. We enjoyed sleeping in until 7am and I'll admit, there were a couple of "pajama days" during the week. Good times had by all. Except Jason. Because he was working. His spring break was two weeks ago and he got to spend it all by himself!
Tomorrow is Easter and rumor has it that the bunny has already visited Grandma Jo and Grandpa Jack's house. We're going there this afternoon to see what is up. It's gloomy and wet so I'm hoping that the bunny hid his eggs inside. Does that make me a wimp?
At least it's not snowing!
