Today was generally frustrating. Thursdays are my long days. Dave has a night class in Kansas City on Thursdays, but still has to go in at 8:30am and stay until 5:00 to get his work done. Then he leaves for KC at 6:00. That is a long mommy shift, but I think I’m getting better at handling all those hours alone. I haven’t had to since before Samuel was born, so this has taken some getting used to.
On a happy note, Atticus saw his first rainbow today. He was genuinely thrilled. It was a bold, beautiful bow—(I didn’t intend the alliteration). Perfect for a first sighting.
