royalty in the house

I didn't have the heart to tell her otherwise.  After-all - totally on her own, she had the whole scheduled day off school all planned.

She started the day with a bucket full of papers on which were written things like......make a band, make crowns (as shown), do a puppet show, make bracelets, do each others hair (that proved tricky with her short haired brothers), pin the tail on the donkey.  Every time I turned around they were making another mess doing something different.  I slipped a few pieces of my own into the bucket - see how fast you can clean your rooms, sharpen all the pencils, play outside - but they caught onto me pretty quick.

 

It was a good full day.

I'm having a hard time keeping track of the days this week.  Monday = snowday, Thursday = scheduled day off, Hubby is working all weekend and my oldest has a full day of confirmation tomorrow.  No routine this week at all.

I'm already anxious for Monday - and hopeful for a routine week next week.

Hope is good.

Happy Friday!
(be good!)

**** fingers crossed that my oven gets fixed tonight.

Sharyn, the bucket thing, what a great idea! I hear you on the routine thing, I struggle with breaks now that we aren't homeschooling anymore. We have a two week break starting for two of the kids next week...I wonder what I can use for a bucket...hmmmmm...
