Top Ten Things I Love About School Vacation Week!

“Do I have school today?”

“No, Honey, we are on vacation!”

“Oh.”  He thinks about this for a second.  ”Do I have school tomorrow?”

“Nope!  It’s just you, me, Daddy and Jonathan until next week!”

He blinks a couple of times. He is processing this information.  He is only in Kindergarten, after all.  When I told him about Christmas vacation he actually cried. He missed his friends.  I was worried that I was going to have an upset boy on my hands.

“Oh.  Can we watch Tangled?”

And that was it.

The Top Ten Things I LOVE About School Vacation Week!

1. Getting up early because I WANT to, not because I have to. And really, sleeping in doesn’t happen here. I have two human alarm clocks. But, the inhuman times I normally try to wake up at? Not necessary this week!

2. Time to get caught up on laundry.  (Okay — I don’t actually love the process of this one, but I do love the end result!)

3. My husband’s schedule changes and we have evenings together. All WEEK!!!

4. Twitter!!  I miss all the fun in my tweetdeck groups by being a work!!

5.  Blogging at 8:37 AM!

6. Going through the books I have been collecting on my Kindle, and actually starting some of them!

7. Being able to reply to emails when I receive them, rather than putting them aside and trying to find them hours later, after classes are finished.

8. Time, time, time with my boys. Just hanging out together.  I have take so many pictures just today and yesterday that I could probably do my scrapbooking layouts for Friday today.

9. Time for scrapbooking!  I might as well do them now!  I wonder how many I could do this week?

And I save the best one for last:

10. NAPTIME!!! When Jonathan goes down for a nap I can take a nap myself!!   That doesn’t mean that I will, but just knowing that it is an option is awesome!!
