It is difficult for me to get ready in the mornings even though I have hastened my routine (shower, dry and curl hair, make-up, and dress) to a mere 30 minutes. You should see me flying around the bathroom. The problem is, I spend almost as much time refereeing fights, finding toys, getting drinks of water, distributing snacks, and starting little movies for the boys during that time. It truly hinders my progress. So this morning, I had a chat with the boys at breakfast about how I needed to hurry and get ready and how wonderful it would be if they could just play quietly in the playroom until I was finished. Inside I was rolling my eyes.
However, they surprised me and not one fight or bout of tears did I have to attend to. Eventually they found me in the bathroom and fiddled around in my bedroom until I was ready. Joel called out that they were "sure doing such a good job playing nicely". And yes, they were! This is how I found them when I was done--sitting on my comforter just staring at the dresser and chatting...so cute. I had to document it.
