A Sleepy Sunday...

Ahhh. Silence. The children are in bed sound asleep, I hope. And I am, as usual, on the couch with this computer in my lap... Oh yeah, and I have a glass of wine. I used to have a glass of wine almost every night. Now I occasionally pour a glass and then proceed to let it sit there all night without drinking it. Tonight, maybe I will actually take a sip or two-- maybe I'll even finish the glass... I'm not sure why I can't seem to drink anymore. I guess that's a good thing--given my family history. I always think that a good drink sounds good-- in fact, I often crave one. But I just don't seem to want it once it is poured. Strange.

Today I just could not seem to wake up... I felt so tired all day. I did attempt to work in the yard for a while. I think I almost had a heat stroke out there---I didn't finish. It was just too hot. Instead I put on Cinderella for the kids to watch and took a short nap. Later we all went outside for a little swim. Big A pointed out how our 27 inch deep swimming pool was no match for the Olympic size pool she swam in yesterday. I agreed. But hey, at least we can cool off in it... Maybe next year I'll get a bigger one. Who knows.

Tonight, before bed we were playing with pattern blocks. D has great fine motor skills. He is also very creative at making patterns. I haven't put him in OT yet--I'm not sure he needs it. It is funny, he loves to build and make things, but he is not into drawing or coloring very much. He always wants to watch the other person color. Maybe he'll be an engineer...
