And I'm exhausted. Lol. Oh kids require so much more time and attention than I can give in this state. My husband had to go coach the hockey team on a road game so he's gone most of the day.
How embarrassing that the absence of TV and video games renders my 9y/o child so bored he wants to poke his eyes out. Lol I'm obviously not the worlds best parent. I'll have to give my trophy back... Haha!
So far we have:
Looked at Lego picture books
Looked at hockey cards
Talked a lot more than I'm used to
Iced his neck for about 15 mins
Had breakfast and lunch
Drew and coloured pictures
Played with a sticker book
Played X's and O's
Soon to:
Bake cookies together
Eat them
Have a nap
Then I'll have to get up and make supper and then we'll do some colouring and play a quiet game of something or do some easy Lego.
The notion of no electronics and no physical activity for even one day has never crossed this child's mind. I'm laughing because the difference between his concussed energy level versus mine is huuuuuuuge. I delight in him but man he wears me out. I'd never trade it though. Time to just focus on him is a gift even if I'm a head case next week.
Ima sleep good tonight!
