With Nicki back at work, there was no one to watch my boys for me this year while I got my classroom set up. So, I loaded up the boys, bribed them with sweet teas and took them in for a couple of hours each day. Mac was a huge help, most of the time.
Patrick, not so much. He continued working on his love affair with the iPad.
Mac even helped me assemble a bookshelf (at home, then taken in post assembly in case you were wondering) and hammered the nails by himself! I’m very upset I didn’t get a picture of him in action. I was just too worried about the hammer missing its mark (which it never did!). While I certainly got frustrated at times…really frustrated at times (I may have almost had a nervous break down at one point when Shannon called)…they didn’t do too bad and I feel quite satisfied with what I got accomplished in the room. It’s mostly set up and I’m ready for the planning stage. Thank you, my boys. You did great for having to stay inside, in a classroom, for three days in a row. I love you, both.
