in the still of the night.....

I look forward to a very quiet evening.

I looked after Molly E. today, we had a grand ole time of it. Went for a nice, crisp walk this morning over to the Mall so we could get her a "sippy" cup....as she tends to put her little hands into wide mouth cups....go figure....life is just a lot easier with the no-spill sippy cups and a lot less mess. Lunch was shared with her handsome Uncle, and her snack time also included a visit from Grampa....she got in lots of smiles, tons of giggles and more than enough hugs to last her until next time we see her.

Brett is home tomorrow and I am sure he will have the laundry completed, the vacuuming done and the floors washed,....oh...the bathrooms cleaned to spic and span. Right.....pinch yourself ...your dreamin'. The home cleaning is always done by yours truly, he on the other hand is a great cook....he attempts to make dishes that I would NEVER even give a shot to....and he's really good at them. He also does dishes!!! so, it's about balance, right. There may be a little dust laying about...but I am treated to a wonderful home-cooked meal more often than not. So, the dust can sit until I get to it....sooner or later....well, maybe this evening as you see...I ...uh...can't stand to relax unless the place is tidy and in order....yeah, well thats me!!
Surprised....NOT!!!

I have a paperback picked out, my pj's are clean.....the house is actually vacuumed because Molly and I took down the Nativity scene today together....she has all the figures down pat. Mary, Joseph, each wise man and what is the gift they hold...(she has a bit of a time saying frankincense on the first go 'round....)but she knows the shepherd boy as well as each of the animals....and to be sure we always begin with baby Jesus. Not bad for a two year old, huh?

Okay, I am heading into supper, so adieu....for now....hope you too have a relaxing evening ahead.
