Super Sunday!
Posted by My_Life_Now on April 6th, 2008
What an awesome day! I put life’s stresses behind me today and just put my best foot forward, and it was a really nice day.
I woke up early, and a had a couple of hours of alone time in the morning. I brewed a fresh pot of coffee (love that smell!) and watched some girlie movie that was on television (The Prince and Me, I think). I enjoyed the quiet time and the aroma of my coffee.
My five year old, Victoria, then woke up, and so we had some breakfast together and then watched cartoons for a little bit. We got ourselves dressed and outside the door as it was a beautiful day. She rode her bike, and I walked a long side her for 45 minutes. Good exercise for the both of us. 
Came back home, and then left my little girl with her dad while I did some grocery shopping. More walking. The best part is that I was alone and able to stop at the shoe store to browse. I didn’t find anything, but it was nice being alone and being able to browse.
When I was done with shopping, I came home and Victoria and I made a strawberry/banana smoothie. (Thanks for the inspiration Roni!) I worry about my little one in the kitchen, but the smoothie seemed safe enough and she had a blast helping to measure and count to put the smoothie together. The taste was delicious, but her pride in her accomplishment and cooking with mommy was just priceless. Didn’t stop there either because when it was time for dinner she helped make the corn muffins too! She was having too much fun.
We played outside too. We made a portrait of her with sidewalk chalk. She got the biggest kick out of that. She laid on the floor and I traced her body. We then took the sidewalk chalk and embellished her sidewalk body. Too cool. We played with bubbles, we played jacks, and sidewalk tic tac toe! She’s pooped, and let me tell you, I’m not too far behind!
We’re getting ready for our work day and school day tomorrow. Sundays is the day we kind of do the pedicure/manicure thing. I’m about to do that for her now, and maybe we’ll play a game or two and then she’s off to bed.
I don’t know, maybe a normal Sunday. But I feel really good.
Hope all of you had a wonderful weekend. Thanks for stopping by.
