It is Spring Break for the kids - starting today. For us it will be a time of slowing down, unplugging, and relaxing. The kids are off to their grand-parents tomorrow afternoon (after Doug's physio). After that point, Allison and I are unplugging completely and recharging.
We might go away (who knows where?) we might even stay around home. But for the rest of the week we will literally be unplugging the phone, turning the cell phone off, and banning Microsoft Outlook and MSN Messenger from our lives. We are going to simply recharge.
Have you heard of sleep debt? It's the mode your body gets into when you are low on sleep. It's like borrowing too much money from the bank. Before you get to feel good again, you have to pay it all back. Even a 12 hour sleep can leave you feeling tired if you are too far in debt. We are going to dedicate an entire day to debt repayment. The top priority for that day will be sleep. It will trump all other activities. And if we get tired of sleeping, well, we could always take a nap. I am so looking forward to it. It will be like Disneyland for Parents.
Hopefully this break will give me more patience and perspective. I'll see you next week!

Happy napping Cam and Allison!
Have we not introduced you to the game "Nap Tag"? Everyone lies down, and the first one asleep wins!
