Both My Children Are Sleeping and I Don’t Know What to Do with Myself

Mark took a six minute morning nap so he’d already asleep for his second nap of the day.

Ellie is sick (poor girl) and so she’s sleeping too.

I’m sitting here not quite sure what to do with myself.  I’ve been working really hard to get a good consistent rhythm to our days, particularly in terms of consistent mealtimes and naptimes.  This is mostly to help Ellie take a short nap and have a good bedtime and it’s been working – hooray!

So right now, we should be accomplishing stuff and preparing for lunch and instead I’m sitting here, not quite sure what to do.

It feels like back when I only had one kid and if she was sleeping, the house was quiet.

Imagine that.

Well, I’m off to file some papers or write some thank you notes or some other task that’s been neglected for far too long.

I’m sure Ellie would appreciate your thoughts and prayers to feel better very soon!

    Prayers for Ellie. I’m sure you will figure out the free time if it continues!
