April 9

I decided, for some reason, that today would be a good day to clean (most of) the baseboards on the first floor. We have a lot of baseboards. So now I am tired and my arms hurt.

But at least the boys enjoyed another day of their Spring Break week. Isaac made a truly enormous breakfast consisting of protein pancakes, eggs, and bacon (the leftovers of which are on the plate next to Brady) and then a little later, they settled into the living room to play some Mario.

I was in a post-cleaning stupor by this time, but I could still hear them laughing from my resting spot in the bedroom. And it made me grateful to God --once again-- that they have one another and that their relationship is strong.
