I do enjoy playing games on Facebook though, and of course, keeping in touch with friends.

Not Me Monday

Welcome to Not Me Monday! This week I was full of imperfections, more than normal! Ok, here goes...

I did not try to fix or completely write out some of my five-year-old daughter's valentine cards for her school classmates because I waited until the last possible moment to do them and then needed to hurry along! I especially did not "fix" her letters on the valentine card to her teacher, Mr. W, no way!

I didn't accidentally scrape my car bumper on the side of the garage door as I was backing out because I was in such a rush to leave and wasn't paying attention. And I didn't try to "clean up" the bumper with Windex and a paper towel to cover up the little scrape so my hubby would not see. No, not me!

And finally, while at the grocery store I didn't get one of those enormous car grocery carts (to please my children and keep them quiet while shopping) and then run into the Fachnaught display stand (which I shouldn't even be looking at) and knock over a huge sign. Then not knowing how to put the sign back, just left it lay there. I would never do such a thing! Nope, not me!

Getting to know YOU V-Day Style

I'm having fun again with Getting to Know You over at MannLand5.

The questions..

1. Favorite Valentine's candy?

Absolutely by far, the best.........

2. Pink or red?

Used to be red, but now prefer pink!

3. Will you be doing anything to celebrate today?

Unfortunately my hubby had to work, but I enjoyed spending the day with my children and MIL. Went for lunch and spent the afternoon chatting and catching up. When my hubby got home we went out for dinner. I had a great day!

4. Do you put up Valentine's decorations?

Nope, never did get too much into decorating for any holidays other than Christmas.

5. What does Valentine's Day mean to you?

Spending time and being thankful for your loved ones.

6. Would you rather get..flowers, candy, or a night out?

A night out sounds good to me!

7. Sexy lingerie or nothing.at.all?

How about my sweat pants and tee shirt? Boring, huh?

8. Do you say Valentine's Day or Valentime's Day?

Never heard anyone say Valentime's Day....funny!

Working Mommy Wednesday

What do you do about work when your child is sick?
Whose responsibility is it to stay home when daycare is not available?
Should Mom be the typical caregiver or should Dad step in?

Fortunately our kids have been very healthy so far this winter so I am very thankful for that! My daughter is almost 6 years old and is in half-day morning kindergarten. After school the bus drops her off at the babysitter until my husband picks up after work. My son is almost 3 years old and also stays at the same sitter 3 days a week and with my wonderful dad 2 days a week. I am very blessed to have my dad those 2 days because he takes my son even when he is sick! However, if it is not his day to watch my son, then I would typically be the one to stay home with him as well as with my daughter. Although my husband has already left work early and picked my daughter up from the sitter when she was not feeling well. So depending on the day and who has more vacation days available to use, this is usually the person who stays home. I think when my kids were younger, my husband was almost "afraid" to watch them, even when they weren't sick, because he was worried that they would cry and he wouldn't know what to do. Now that they are older, he is a lot more comfortable and steps up to the plate more often. I do believe it should be a shared responsibility just like so many other aspects of being a parent. You are in it together and it works better when you are a team! In my opinion, I do think mothers are just naturally more nurturing and children tend to come to Mom more often for comfort when they are not feeling well.
