Gwyneth gets some extra reading time on Wednesdays after school. I drop her off for 45 minutes. It is just far enough from our house that it’s not worth going home and then turning around and going back. Last week I had to drag Annabelle quickly through the grocery store. That made me more than little anxious about being late to pick up Gwyneth. I was barking at Annabelle to “hurry! hurry!”. That is no good for any of us. 

This week we packed up homework and settled in for hot chocolate at Starbucks. We slowed things down, did a little people watching, had some good Annabelle/Mommy time, and Annabelle got all her home work done. This may start to get pricey. My sanity may be worth the price of a weekly hot chocolate. 

Since I didn’t hit the grocery store, we didn’t have food for dinner at home. Oh well. After Gwyneth’s dance class we had dinner at Lazy Dog and B was even able to join us. 

Annabelle and B share a love of Buffalo and BBQ wings. They got some tonight that were HUGE and Gwyneth found it hilarious.
