Break Over


Today was my last day off for Christmas break before getting back to the grind. The last "Mommy and Me Day" as Declan calls them. 

It was just the best not having to set an alarm and being awaken each morning by my little Monkey.  Today all he wanted was to go back to Cirq Du Play but I'd made other plans. We first played a couple games here at home in our pjs, then we got dressed and headed out to pick up some things he needed for starting his new Theater class tomorrow and finally we made our way into Hamilton so Declan could play all afternoon with Clayton. They hadn't seen each other in about a year and a half so it was like they were new friends. They're both a little bossy but they figured it out and played well together. Inside for about two hours and then they played on the schoolyard of Clayton's school for a half hour in the freezing cold. Boys. How they can ignore the cold I don't understand. The two of them had the rosiest little round cheeks. They had a blast. When it was time to leave Declan cried and didn't want to leave his friend. Half the drive home he made sure I knew how sad he was but then he fell asleep, just exhausted from play. When we got home he was still pretty beat but he was happy. Had a nice evening with Daddy and a bath before bed. He's excited for class tomorrow and right now he's sound asleep in bed. I'm missing him already. Now and then I might just have to keep him home from school all to myself.
