This afternoon, I was off to get another pre-kindergarten doctor visit checked off the list. Hannah and I had our eyes checked. My eyesight is as bad as last year and Hannah's eyesight is just as good. Hannah did great with the pictures that they took of her eyes (much better than last year) and she was willing to try out a new test and did fantastic with that as well. I was very proud of her.
Then, instead of going back to work for the next 2 hours, I had decided to take the rest of the day off. It was nice. I took Monday morning off too, so this is the second half day I took off this week. On Monday I spent the morning prepping for things at work and Hannah had a bad morning anyway, with the 4 shots that she got - in her words, "I did NOT like them! I thought I was gonna die!" (Yes, she actually told the optometrist's assistant this today). So this afternoon was the better half day off.
So what did I do, you may ask? Well, I sent Hannah to bed for her nap and I fell asleep myself. Boring, I know, but apparently needed. When I sent her to bed, I didn't actually expect her to fall asleep but at least she would be resting (ish). As she walked up the stairs she said that I should make sure she was up at 6:30. That was at 4:00. Well it is 6:30 now and she is still asleep. And I have no intention of waking her. Yeah for peace and quiet and a well-rested 5-year old!
So, Today I am Thankful for the Afternoon Off!
YAY for you taking a little time off!!! And so proud of miss Hannah for being so brave at the doctor.
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you got rested, I'm glad she got rested, and I'm glad Hannah's a diva - "I thought I was gonna die!" - we'd be without so many stories if she wasn't. Love ya!
