The kids did have a normal routine all day on Friday so they attended all classes and all activities. The sun has also been making an appearance each day for us so some of our piles of snow are melting but they still have a long way to go. The snow now has a hard crust of ice on top so it's not something that you want to accidentally bump into with your car but Coco is able to venture out a bit further from the house as she can mostly walk on top of the snow. Max and Calvin are continuing to have fun sledding on our little hill and this pile of drying snow clothes has become a permanent fixture in our butler's pantry.
I made a decision yesterday. My boss from the rehab clinic/hospital has been asking me repeatedly if I would agree to pick up some regular hours for them. I finally agreed yesterday that I would begin to work six hours a week, as long as this could still be flexible to meet my volunteering and kid needs. I will organize and run a women's health program for the hospital as I have done in the past. I will also help with other marketing and organizational needs of the clinic as this is what I love to do. So, I worked for 3 hours yesterday, saw a couple of patients and was immediately reminded of how much I do enjoy my chosen profession. Wish me luck!
I helped to coach the "Brain Team" after school yesterday. Calvin is on this team and it was great fun to work with these smart and motivated 5th and 6th graders!
Max had a sleepover at a friend's house, Calvin has a friend having a sleepover here, Quincy and Tabitha both went to movies (separately) with friends last night and came home late. It is a never a dull moment on weekend evenings any more. Today, Quincy will swim in the relay finals at sectionals but first, I will take Tabitha to register at the high school. Gosh, these kids are growing up fast!
