Happy Presidents Day

So the kids were home from school yesterday for the holiday. This usually means, do somethings together that is a little more fun. Instead this day was used for me to accomplish or at least try and accomplish many things. Todd is still working his night so he was asleep and I didn't end up spending much time with the kids at all. I started off the morning by giving a couple of massages to friends. One just likes to get them once a month, the other is one I just started and we are trading massages for babysitting so Todd and I can get away a couple of times a month. Yeah, for having something that I can use to trade with.The rest of the day, pretty much was spent on the phone gathering information that Todd and I need to start making some decisions in our lives for some stuff in the future.
I didn't even think about it until this morning, how wonderful my kids were yesterday. I don't even think I can remember a time where they fought, which is amazing since some days it is an hourly event. I do remember a few times where they got extremely loud when I was on the phone which is always a little annoying, but they where just playing. Taylar was continually playing and helping with the babies and the boys spent a lot of time working quietly on a puzzle, it's not a real easy one either, but they kept at it. So I want to tell everyone what wonderful amazing kids I have, and tell them that I love them and I am grateful everyday that I have them in my life.

I'm happy to hear that your kids cooperated so you could get some research done. What size puzzle do you have the boys working on?
