J's day "off"

John had the day off work today. I love his days off! Especially when he spends them as he did today, just an ordinary day with us. So today we... took 2 kids to school, went to the grocery store, put groceries away at home, skipped Monday yoga, played around the house with L, then J went to have lunch with Ek while I fed L and picked H up from school, got both kids down for naps, whew!, took a shower, spent some time doing Bible study, kids woke up, picked Ek up from school, ran a few errands, went home and changed Ek for dance, picked up a friend from gymnastics, took her to her daddy, took Ek to dance, ran home to start supper, ran back to pick up Ek, deep breath and it was 6:30, the time J sometimes gets home and I thought, boy a lot of days he misses so much of our day. I am so thankful for when he is with us through it all, when he gets to say to Ek, "how was spanish class?" in the car after school and not have to wait until dinner time. :) Then we ate dinner, pj's, brush teeth, pray, tuck in and bless, clean up the kitchen (ok that's him, not me), blog (ok that's me, not him) and fall into which ever is closer- bed or couch. Busy, tiring, great day.
