The BIG Melt

It was a sunny, wonderful Spring day! Puddles are forming everywhere at the acreage and splash boots are a must! There is a lake forming near the chicken coop which makes egg collecting extra fun! My laundry pile keeps growing and often I make the kids strip down before they are even allowed in the house. But all of the extra fresh air and sunshine makes for tired, hungry kiddos at days end. We had chicken pot pie for dinner and when I told Ollie, "You're a hungry boy!" He replied, "I not hungry, I Ollie!" At days end my house still looks the same as it did when I woke up despite my efforts to organize and clean. I only got through half of the dishes this afternoon thanks to the baby napping in my arms. After I tuck in the kids I can still hear fain sounds of the boys jumping on beds in the basement. It doesn't take long before he falls asleep and I again have to make the choice to snuggle him or to put him in his bed and get something done. Of course I pick snuggle, and tomorrow when I wake, the house will still look like a tornado ripped through it.
