today was another snow day. a quiet day. a day that i promised myself that it would be OK if i just wanted to hide out in bed all day and let the kids work it out amongst themselves. a "detachment parenting" kind of day. and so far, it's been awesome. i read, relaxed, juiced, worked out, listened to records, lit some candles, meditated, cleaned the house a bit, ate some salad, snuggled with the dog and the kids, had a B-52's dance party, watched the kids draw together, sent an insane amount of gratitude into the universe for a fantastic neighbor that plowed us out (john's away), made cookies, and just vegged. deep breaths. i find that when i set the expectations really low, and practice detachment parenting, the best sort of days happen. the best part is, it's 1:45p and almost time for sushi date and watching "parade's end"...and then bed again.
