What is it with boys? (If you have them too, you might recognize my ramblings about my busy life these last couple of days...) Never a dull moment in my house...
This last week i was a single mom, because Gerard was on a work trip to Montreal... so it was hands on for me... but i handled it quite well, and managed to combine al my daily tasks (getting Stach to school by bike every morning, then working at the office, taking care of Stach (and often a bunch of his friends) after school, cleaning, cooking, laundry, reading bedtime stories, the whole deal) between 7.oo am and 11.30 pm... so, i treasured the small bits of free time i had like they were diamonds...
Last Sunday i had such a treasured moment in my studio, and then the doorbell rang... so picture me, running down two stairs to the door, with a dripping paint brush still in my hand, opening the door to discover my beloved sun completely soaked and dirty and yucky, from his waist to his shoes!! 'Hi mom... i was kinda pushed into the water...' Yes, i could see that... and smell it too! Well, after getting him out of his wet clothes, and putting him directly into a nice and hot shower, he told me he was playing with a few friends at the mill near the water... a place were he's not supposed to be at all without telling us or adult supervision!!! Anyway... i guess he has learned his lesson, because he promissed me by himself, after explaing me how scared he just was, not to go there again! Sweety pie!
And then i found myself doing more laundry, and cleaning his shoes, instead of creating in my studio... sigh...
