Much needed R and R

There is something about sleeping animals and children. I was trying to think of what I should write about today and then walked in the bedroom and saw Austin sleeping like this and had to smile, run and get my camera and then I knew what I would write about.

As any mom of small children knows sometimes vacations are not all that relaxing–especially when missed naps are involved. So I am actually getting my R and R now. Thursdays are fast becoming my favorite day of the week. I love packing our CSA boxes, infact it is probably my favorite on farm work. Then I get to deliver all the boxes. I made a deal with the children that if they sleep while I am delivering boxes (read quiet ride) they can skip nap. They normally try to do that. Finally we have a really good excuse to stay home all evening and get things done around the house, or not as in the case of today.

Since the children got to skip nap today I took a solo one, a nice treat, plus I got to journal, cuddle with Austin and read a bit. A very nice day all in all.

For those home cooking tonight here is our Newletter for this week.
