Time.....Brooke

Well Brooke has absolutely loved having me home all the time. I admit it has been nice other than the stress. But we have baked (which Michael loves), played barbies, nintendo's, drawn (she draws pictures of everyone and I draw houses), colored, and read lots and lots of books (she is into reading a lot again... which I think is great other than it hurts my throat after awhile), cleaned, and watched movies. It is rather hilarious. Last Saturday Mike was going to replace a cluth and do other litle things on a truck of some farmers, and Brooke woke up and right away wanted to play barbies. My thoughtful husband made plans with his mom to have Brooke go over there and play with her cousins. Which left me to a Saturday alone with very minimal chores around the house to do. I was ecstatic!! It was nice after a week long with a very active 3 1/2 year old. I relaxed most of the day doing a little laundry and dishes until closer to late afternoon. Which I took advantage of the sun, warmth, and melted snow to clean up the backyard. Our dogs like to tear up everything. They had made a mess of anything they could get their teeth on. Dang dogs! They also like drag Brooke's toys out and chew on them. I decided to put everything into the shed. Poor Brooke, she used to take her lawn mower and mow the snow, now I don't know what she'll do for fun.... Lol... All in all it has been fun.
