Reading Hour

When Mom is at her wit's end, and I mean wit's END... it's always a good idea to mandate some quiet reading time for the kids. After a long day of school work, running Ashlee to dance, Trader Joe's, and a husband who works 16 hours a day, this was the scene in the living room while I put a late dinner of spaghetti on the table. I had laid Rachel down and Anthony was asleep in his swing, so this actually brought a few minutes of quiet. Today was an exceptionally hard day for me and moments like this are too few and far between, but when I get one, I'll tell you it's worth it!
