Every so often I have one of those days where I go to bed and think, "I was home with my kids all day, but when did I spend any time with them?" It's an awful, terrible feeling. I'm sure that I corrected them for things they did wrong during the day, but not so sure I said a lot of encouraging, loving things. We had a doctor's appointment this morning and they were so good for me. Afterwards I let them play in the sprinkler, but got caught on the phone with a friend for way too long. I made sure to read individually to the boys before they went down for nap, but that 10 minutes was not enough. Tomorrow I'm determined to play with them and look them in the eyes and talk to them. Also tickle them and play baseball. They are so precious and they are growing up so fast! I look at Thea and can't believe how big she is already. They're little for such a short time. I need to make every minute count. If anyone has any ideas on how to prioritize your time let me know! Ususally if I plan our day the night before I do much better.
