Amy's been sleeping a lot lately and at strange times. And not sleeping when she should. Like I don't think there's a day in the last 6 or 7 that she slept past 6 am. As a result she falls asleep in the afternoon or early evening and has no trouble sleeping at bed time even if she had a long or late nap or just sleeps on through dinner and the evening clear til morning. When she wakes up super early again.
Today was one of those days. Asleep before we could get to school time.
After a rest, Noel was going strong so we had school without Amy. I sometimes feel sad for Noel because she doesn't get one-on-one as much as Amy. Not guilty. This is just how some things go. But sad for her. She LOVES school but has to sleep through it often and doesn't get full rein ever; Amy's almost always there. So we seized the day and had fun ourselves. Partway through Eliza joined us too.
Noel's shown some interest lately in some pictures she found from my childhood and youth so I got those out for Mom Class. We had fun looking at them. I kept asking her who people were, people she really really knows well. She never knew. She thought all the women were me - my sister and sister-in-law included. Funny.
She chose Twister for her first activity. She asked me a lot about right and left but knew all the colors. We took turns spinning and playing.
As we were trying to clean that up, Eliza got inside. All of a sudden we had twister burritos with both girls wrapped up in the mat. There was a lot of tickling and giggling. Cute.
Then we got down a floor puzzle we have. That was interesting trying to put it together with Eliza around. I went back and forth between helping/ encouraging Noel and entertaining Eliza. When it was time to clean that up, Eliza and Noel walked all over the puzzle to break it up.
Amy just woke up, a little sad she missed school. I'm glad I didn't miss it today.
