In the last year, we've gotten our kids accustomed to going to bed at an early time. I shoot for 7:00, and sometimes I make it. But usually its around 7:15 or 7:30 before they make it down. Dinner usually runs late, and then the kids get dirty outside while I'm cooking, so they really need a bath. However, the last two nights have been dead-on 7:00. I'm not sure what I'm doing right, but I hope I keep it up.
When they go to bed, Christian is usually not home. I have about an hour to sit and think, sleep, read, watch "my" TV, or anything I want to do. (I should be blogging!) Its becoming my favorite time of the day. I spend so much of my day conversing with my kids (which I'm not complaining about). They just talk a lot. Its the only time I can think a thought through without someone interrupting. (Christian is really bad about that!) I love spending time with Mason & Mallory, but this is "my time of the day". It makes me happy. I hope that doesn't sound too selfish.
