The upcoming return of a regular schedule

Even though our holiday was really appreciated, there comes a time where a regular schedule is needed again. The boys are missing their school friends, the rhythm of a day-to-day, the regular weekly activities... and they are missing homework.... hahahaha- no, not homework- I just made that one up ;)
So, tomorrow, is back to school day. For the boys. For me. For Andreas. At the start of the holidays, I used to torture the boys by pretending that the next day was a school day. NOOOOOOOOO! they would yell. Now, I say the same thing and I think that they are OK with it. Oliver is even planning the snow fort that he will make with his friends at recess tomorrow. Nicka isn't eye rolling me as much and Alexander just nods. Yups... back to the routine. Guaranteed that tomorrow will be tough... but welcome.

Hope you have a smooth transition back to daily life.... See you on the other side ;) xox

Back to the routine

Well, it was back to work again yesterday. Honestly, I could have used another week to "shift gears" and get organized but it is kind of nice to be back in a routine. Let's see how long it lasts before I am writing to say how excited I will be for Spring Break ;)

Last night, Andreas took the tree down and, while it is nice to get a big section of our living room back, I have to admit that I was a bit sad to see it go.....

Happy Friday to you all (now that I remember what day of the week it is again!) xox
