The Day After Christmas

I think today was the best day this year for Josh, we'll besides yesterday. He is a laid back little boy that has no sense of hurry, worry, or fuss. He has a pace of his own and I can't slow myself down enough to follow his beat. Last night after a wonderful but very busy Christmas, when we walked in the door I said go to bed whenever you want. We'll Josh ended up falling asleep watching a video with his dad and his sibilings. He woke up later this morning at a time that wasn't decided for him. He did get dressed but within 3 hours he was back in his pajamas and spent the rest of the day in them. He was excited for dinner and asked for seconds which usually our meals are accompanied by a plethora of whine, yes not wine. And then to top it off, he declared he was ready for bed and took matters into his hands to prepare himself for sleep. It helps out a lot that he was already in his pajamas. He was such a pleasant boy today because I made no requests. Today we just were. No where to go. Nothing to do. Lots of play. This is the way Josh's world would be. And believe it or not, I really enjoyed myself too.
