Today was the last full day of vacation with the kiddos. While D. Took his morning nap, I played rummy and other games with I. And then we all went to the pools once D. Got up until about 1:30.
It again was a bit of a divide and conquer strategy where we each would take one kid and then we would switch off after awhile. Having two kids for once made things more even because when we only had I., V. Would refuse to get in the water for the most part and I would be solely in charge of entertaining her. So that made my irritation factor basically disappear this year.
I can't believe that tonight is our last night. It went so fast. As always, why am I surprised. When I think of dropping the kiddos off at my parents Thursday through Sunday, I'm sad. I've enjoyed having fun with my kiddos without all the tasks and errands and chores etc. pulling at me. It's been fun to be silly and playing with them. Once I get to New York for V.'s work trip, I'm sure I will enjoy it but a part of me knows that this vacation will be one that will never come around again due to the young ages and stages of the kiddos.
