back to life

I prepped myself for today.
Yesterday morning we had donuts and stayed in pajamas and watched movies.
All cuddled on the couch.
The last day of vacation.
We made the most of it.
I went through the stages of grief;
Denial, anger, bargaining, depression, acceptance.
Before bed I made sure the house was clean, laundry going, calendar filled in, menu made.
And I prayed.
That I would be happy about getting back to the routine.
Working out, kids up, getting ready, off to school, errands, cooking, etc.
And it worked. 
The alarm went off at 5:30 and Nate and I started off the day with reading and then to Jillian.
And I wasn't even grouchy.
She punished us after 2 weeks of time off.
I had to do girl push-ups.


It was such a great vacation.
SO great.
Almost perfect.
