I often talk about how lucky I am to work 3 days a week. It really is a wonderful schedule in so many ways and I really appreciate that I can do this. I enjoy and appreciate my week days off so thoroughly that I thought I would write a little ode to my Wednesdays and Fridays...
On Wednesdays and Fridays I don't have to put my alarm on...my alarm clock is Mathieu jumping into bed with me...
On Wednesdays and Fridays I can do long snuggles with Mathieu and Gabriel in bed...Mathieu, in particular is a big snuggler. Gabriel gets impatient after a couple of minutes and starts chanting, "I want Mini wheats, I want Mini Wheats..."
On Wednesdays and Fridays we don't have to rush through breaksfast, we can take an extra long time lingering at the table...
On Wednesdays and Fridays I can take my time getting Mathieu off to school...
On Wednesdays and Fridays Gabriel gets to stay home with me...
On Wednesday and Fridays Mathieu can come home for lunch...
On Wednesdays and Fridays, I can thoroughly clean my house...giving me a sense of control and accomplishment!
On Wednesdays and Fridays, I manage to get a little quiet time while Gabriel is napping...Oh this is precious quiet time!
On Fridays, I get to go with Gabriel to playgroup at the Carrefour...It is so wonderful to see the joy he gets out of these mornings and to watch him run his little heart out in the gym...
On Wednesdays and Fridays I can take my time to run any necessary errands...Gabriel partilarly enjoys sitting in the grocery cart and pointing out every possible article of food he sees...
On Wednesdays and Friday I get to watch part of Oprah before picking Mathieu up from Tae Kwon Do or Chess class...
But of course, I know I would not appreciate these days so much if I didn't have my Mondays, Tuesday and Thursdays!...
Next up...Ode to my Saturdays and Sundays!!
