the laundry is quietly murmuring a sweet song in the distance, and i am thankful for the peaceful break from the day. both boys are temporarily asleep and the sun is begining to go down, causing a big red portrait to glow against the living room wall.
dinner is already planned (grilled salmon on a bed of spinach and mixed greens with fresh louisiana strawberries and goat cheese). at the begining of the month i planned all of february's menus, instead of just a week at a time. tonight's festivities include a trip to snap to run and lift weights, and hopefully, finally getting around to watching fred claus, though a new movie did come in from netflix, so wesley may prefer to watch it instead. today has included suprizing wesley with breakfast, a trip to the grocery store - where i got groceries plus the last of my valentine's day gifts, assorted errands run, and one of several valentine's day cards made. i hear knox asking politely to get out of bed, so i will go and help him to encourage his polite-ness.
