And...we’re back.
Thanks to everyone who left such thoughtful comments. The break was great, and badly needed. If not for the confines of anonymity, I’d post a few pictures of The Boy and The Girl; there’s one of The Girl in a Santa hat that makes all who see it bust out laughing.
Some highlights of the break:
Me, resigned: “Don’t pile-drive your sister.”
The Girl’s mouth forming a perfect ‘O’ when we first turned on the lights on the tree.
Eight hours of uninterrupted sleep.
Reading actual books.
The Boy: Why are turtles slow?
The Wife: Because they have tiny legs.
The Boy: Mice have tiny legs, and they’re fast!
The Wife: um...
We had imitation lutefisk – this year, it was tilapia – and it was lovely.
A week without office politics is sheer heaven.
And now, back to our regularly scheduled life...
