It is a dreary rainy day outside, but around here, we don't mind. We tend to like these rainy days. The boys enjoy watching the rain outside the window, and we find the constant sound of the rain rather pleasant. It does seem to be a bit of a sedative though, so not so good for getting things done. Perhaps we will find the energy somehow :).
There's not too much on my to-do list today. I need to clean the "mouse" (guinea pigs) cage. I know it is time to clean it when they start screaming at me every time I walk by :). I have a little laundry to do, and a little straightening up. But the big item on my list is to work on my dresses.
Everyone is still a little under the weather, but getting better. Joshua is in a quiet mood today, which is rather unusual for him. He is upset about his firehat. It has been tearing for a few days now, and is pretty unwearable at this point. He doesn't seem to understand why. He's not quite old enough to grasp that it is in that condition because he was too rough in his treatment of it. We've been trying to explain this to him all along, but little Joshua just can't help himself. If it can be crushed, he will crush it. He's just all boy. He keeps looking at Jacob's hat, not understanding why his is still wearable. Jacob has been fiercely protective of his, he sure loves his firehat. This morning he asked if we could go back to the firestation sometime. He said he'd really like to see his fireman friend.
This morning Jacob "made" a birthday cake and some chocolate icecream. He said that his mama taught him how to be a good cooker on the counter. He was referring to the "helping" that he does when we bake. :) He really enjoys those moments, I will have to try and find more ways to let him "help" with other tasks. Oh my sweet boy.
It is turning out to be a quiet day around here, which is rather pleasant. Seems like the perfect day to do some much needed sewing. (and a little cleaning, too, of course:))
