I almost forgot to write today.

A day in the kitchen cooking and baking in advance of both boys home from school on Monday.  Even made my first cheesecake for the April birthday we missed celebrating.  Have to say it looks PERFECT!  Hope it tastes good too.

It's a mixed blessing having them home.  LOVE spending time with the amazing men they have become.  Really awesome boys (and I not just because I'm their mom).  Makes me proud just to be around them.

But ... cue the mommy job again.  Cooking, extra cleaning, sports on the TV, loud noises stomping through the house ... you get the picture.  Now don't get me wrong, first couple of weeks are fantastic.  It's my pleasure and my duty and I couldn't be happier to make a nice cosy home.

Then I hate it.

I guess I'm not much of a domesticated women.  I really enjoy the freedom of taking care of just me (and the dog and occasionally the hubby).  I like not wearing a bra after dinner, leaving the bathroom door ajar, watching my TV, etc.

But - they are really amazing kids and I love them.  And I will play mommy for the summer (again).  And I will miss them horribly when they go back to school.

Love and hate, but mostly love XO
