Friday Evening

What a week! As I type this post, the McCauley kids are eating ice cream sandwiches and Chewy Chips Ahoy cookies while watching The Parent Trap. I realize the nutritional value of their bedtime snack is quite impressive, but they are so blissfully happy that it's worth the sacrifice!

Anyway, it's been an interesting week for the McCauley family. The end of the school year brings lots of changes - both good and bad. The kiddos get to stay up later and sleep in, which is fun for Megan and Kellan but kind of challenging for Jacksen. You see, Jacksen is very schedule-oriented and has a difficult time with anything outside of his daily routine. He has not gotten nearly enough sleep all week so he has been a little monster to live with. Last night he did not fall asleep until 9:30 (mostly because it was still light outside) and then he was up before 6:30 this morning! Thankfully, it was a quiet day at his daycare and he took a 3-hour nap. Let's just say we are really enjoying having our happy Jacksen back this evening!
