Recovering From Camp

Ahhh ... It's been a long week.

I'm exhausted.

My eyes have black cirlces under them.

My energy levels are at an all-time low.

I think I could sleep for days straight.

I'm lucky I got in a few showers.

You know what the odd thing is?

I didn't even go to camp.

My husband took the 2010 interns.

I stayed home with the Henderson kids.

Which boils down to:

diapers, cleaning, gymnastics,

doctor appointments (for bronchitus), meals,

taking out the garbage, bedtime tuck-ins,

baths, brushing teeth,

taking the kids to work with me
(don't ever try this), 

laundry, fishing toilet paper (a new roll)

out of the toilet, boogers, playdates, dishes ...

do I need to go on?

Now, I look at this list and 

minus a few things, 

this  is a pretty normal week

around the Henderson House.

BUT ...

I realized something this week.

It's much easier

when there's two of you

sharing every day tasks ...

even the smallest duties.

So, while my husband is snoring on the couch

out of sheer exhaustion ....

I am recovering from a

different kind of exhaustion.

I sure am thankful Daddys home!

When's summer gonna be over? :)
