Wednesday we had a day like that and I have to say we had a blast. I let Cole generally decide the activities for the day and it went something like this:
- Cars
- Painting
- Board game
- Baking
- Puzzles
- More cars
It's road with a rainbow and then a river running through it... |
More me watching and him doing |
I love that I have documentation of this time with my kids, as a line in the TV show Modern Family got me thinking last night. A high school daughter and her dad were arguing after he embarrassed her (horribly) in front of her peers at a college visit day. While talking it out, he said something to this effect, "It's just that watching over you has been my job your whole life. And I kind of love it. And I guess I just feel like I'm being forced into early retirement."
I'm quite positive I'll feel the same way.
