An Unintentional Hiatus.

Gosh. It's almost a week since I posted here.

No major reason other than life-with-four-kids-getting-the-better-of-me! We've had coughs and colds, sun and rain, too many late nights, and basically I think I've just been trying to squeeze in too much into my week. 

This evening, exhausted from a marathon clear-out of the two older boys bedroom that took two days, I was finally finished, and as Jay was cooking tonight I snatched a few minutes to lay on my bed in the evening sun.

For all of ten minutes.

 And then they came looking for me. 




But sometimes ten minutes is all you need.

Isn't it amazing how quickly they find you? Or in my case these last few days, they have taken full advantage of knowing I am pre-occupied with something to get up to mischief! I have been trying to alter a dress for a wedding I'm going to tomorrow, and as soon as I get to the attic, the boys cause havoc downstairs. Today Saul and Aubrey scrunched up and wet all the monopoly money and squeezed it into a tiny space. Help!
Good to have you back. Well done on clearing out their room. Is their new room ready already?
