If you walked into the Hoekstra home this morning you would have noticed the following (in no particular order)…
- Everyone slept in…which meant that we were running a little behind.
- The dogs did a fantastic job of tracking in mud/water from being outside, so you can’t even tell that the kitchen and dining area was mopped over the weekend.
- No one wanted to go to work or school. Maybe we were stalling?
- It took forever for lunches to get packed…and I nearly left mine.
- Memphis was sad because his favorite human debated on taking him to work.
- Sam was sad because he worried about all the rain and taking Memphis to work.
- Caden had a little anxiety about school, but we had the tools (challenge coin, note, and list of things that make him happy).
- I thought about changing clothes at least twice so I wouldn’t sweat in my office.
- Sam was feeling a little down, despite not really “feeling it,” he left for work determined to have a good day.
- We all wanted to crawl back in bed…
Despite all of that, and a puny kid who might be on the mend…Monday isn’t turning out to be so bad. We are going to have a family dinner, or should I say, brenner (breakfast for dinner), maybe catch a movie, and relax, enjoying one another’s company. I’d say that would make any case of the Monday’s go away…
