Early evening

Today, I got off about 15 minutes early, since I’d arrived at work too early. In my rush to get to work, I was 30 minutes early! Since it’s a bit too early to start calling at 8am, I waited about 15 minutes before signing in. While I was on my way home, I’d checked in with Dave to see where he was. My answer soon came as I heard Peyton’s squeaky voice from the backseat. We were having a conversation about her underwear being dry before Dave interrupted and told me we’d talk more at home. I got Brandon and headed home, to where Dave was already started to get the bok choy sauteed. After that, he left, as he had a meeting with Brandon’s counselor at 6pm. I was left to feed the kids and both got a small bit of dessert that I’d made yesterday. The marshmallows weren’t as ooey gooey the second day, so it didn’t make much of a mess. Peyton still had a smile of chocolate, but that would happen with the cleanest of desserts. Brandon took his bath while Peyton finished up dinner. Afterward, it was her turn. Both were done by 630pm, and we were reading in Brandon’s room. Brandon again read his school book to Peyton. I knew he was tired when after reading, he laid down and asked for his eye drops. That was a signal it was bedtime, though it was only 645pm. I told him he needed to stay in his bed with the lights off until it was 630am. We practiced with a few times until he understood the concept. He agreed if it was 640am or 650am, he could come out. But if it was 615am, he had to stay in bed. I brought Peyton down for her dose of antihistamine. We tried cetirizine as of yesterday. Dave was hesitant to give it, but he gave in, since I told him if she were really sick, I would have been sick by now. She just has a clear, runny nose. After yesterday’s dose, her nose seemed to be less drippy. It started again, now 24 hours after her previous dose. She was tentative yesterday, so I had to go slow in giving her the cup of syrup, as I didn’t want it all over me or the floor. She stuck her tongue in it, tasted it, then proceeded to shove her entire nose into the little dosing cup. She got every last lick yesterday and proclaimed, “Um, good! Can I have some more?” We both told her it was medicine and that she can only use it if we give it to her. She nodded, but I’m not convinced. In any case, I put it way up high, so neither of them could get it. Today, I used the dropper, and she opened her mouth big and wide. She got it all, and smiled, telling me again how good it was. She went back upstairs and told me she wanted to keep Daddy’s blanket. She rolled over and let me tuck her in, with Daddy’s blanket as the base layer, proceeded by two other blankets, 3 in total “because I’m three”. It’s 720pm, Dave’s not home yet, but the kids have bee quiet now for 30 minutes. I’m hiding out downstairs, wanting to not make any noise. I hear Dave’s car, so I think they will probably want their good night hugs and kisses. Though they may be asleep already, who knows?

Brandon was the one who came down for a hug.  Dave went to check on Peyton, and she was already gone.  It was only 730pm!  She must have been tired from her day.  While I was getting dinner ready, Peyton sat at her spot and said, “So, Ms Christine was in Paradise (room) today.”  She sounded like she wanted to talk about, so I asked her how she felt about it.  She shrugged, “It’s okay.”  She was so matter of fact.  Then she told me, “Ms Joanne and Ms B were there.”  So I asked her how she felt about that. She said, “Well, I was a teacher today.  I was reading a book to Aashu, Navya and Danush.  But Danush stand up.”  So I asked her what happened next.  She said, “I tell Danush to sit down.”  The school report confirmed this, as when Dave got home, the teacher noted that Peyton was playing teacher and reading to her friends.

Here’s Peyton with Ms Christine at her going away party:
