We picked Paige up from Grammy's house this afternoon. She said she didn't want to come home with us, she wanted to stay with Grammy. She only cried for us once the whole weekend, and that was only because she thought she was in trouble. Paige had pulled something from the back of Granny's computer. My mom, Grammy, didn't know how to fix it, so she told Paige they would have to get Uncle Kenny. Paige was afraid he would be mad at her and started crying for us. Once he told her she wasn't in trouble she happily went back to playing and didn't want to go home.
Ronnie worked yesterday and I enjoyed my day to myself. I spent the day reading, relaxing, and just recharging my batteries. This would have been better if my arthritis was under better control and I wasn't hurting quite so much. I finished one book and started on another. Ronnie got home last night and we just spent the evening watching a movie and enjoying the quiet. This morning, we did something we don't normally get to do. We slept past 6 am. I can hear the other parents of small children wishing for the same thing. We slept till 8:30 this morning. And a big thank you to Ambien for that pleasure. Our anniversary dinner got moved to an anniversary lunch. Ronnie got home from work too late to grill last night.
This morning we relaxed more and watched another movie. Our Netflix que is completely caught up for the first time in a long time. We had a leisurely lunch of rib eyes with grilled asparagus and Brussels sprouts and sauteed onions and mushrooms. After eating we went to get Paige. We missed her and were ready to get her back. We get to the store to pick her up and she was happy to see us, then let us know she wanted to stay with Grammy. Of course she did. She gets away with so much more at Grammy's house. After the evening we had I'm sure she would like to go back. Paige had an issue with talking back and sticking her feet in my face. After some reinforcing of the rules around here, we're back on track.
Tomorrow morning it's back to the normal routine around here. Paige will go to school while Ronnie and I go back to work. We have a meeting Tuesday night about Paige staring K-4 in the fall. I can't believe my baby is already starting school.

How exciting, preschool! I'm curious how it works in your state. Here we don't have universal preschool; public preschool is for students who are special needs or economically disadvantaged. Besides that it's private preschool which of course strikes me as expensive since I'm a SAHM. So, just wondering how it works there.
