Saturdays….

Ah Saturday. I LOVE Saturdays because Ben is home on Saturdays.  I feel less stressed on Saturdays  I am extremely lazy on this day.  If my family knows how to do anything it’s how to be lazy together. I don’t know if you count this as a skill but I do and it’s one we have carefully cultivated.  On Saturdays we stay in bed as long as possible. This is not an easy feat with a 4 and 2 year old, but they have learned to snuggle in bed with Mommy and Daddy on Saturday mornings.  They go and play some then they climb back in bed for more snuggling and ultimately Ben and Chicken end up wrestling in the bed at which point Boo will announce that she is hungry.  By this time it’s usually 9:30 or 10 and we go downstairs and have a “special” breakfast.   This could be pancakes, sausage and home made bread or biscuits and we always have orange juice.  Ben has gotten us into the habit of having something special otherwise I would just serve homemade bread.   After that we just vedge it’s our thing and we love it. On Facebook and Twitter I see all these soccer games, baseball games etc and I cringe I dread the day when that will be our Saturday.  All the stress and up early and running around… we will just enjoy the laziness for now.
