Take Time to Play

This weekend I was talking to my husband who has up and left me...for the week. He's away on business and I'm wallowing in the sudden despair of life as a single working parent of three small children.

So I was chatting on along and I said. "Now that you're out of town I could take this opportunity to redo the kids entire room. Get it all cleaned up. (There was a pause) "Or not. I could just lounge around, get the train tracks out and just play with the kids."

And that's just what I did. It was a delightful morning.
