Kaleb went off track just after Easter for a few weeks. It was a welcomed break for both the kids and myself. It is always nice to sleep in and not have much of a schedule. Karmindy still had preschool on Monday, Wednesday and Friday in the mornings but it was still nice to have some low key days.
We didn't end up doing a whole lot while Kaleb was off track, which I felt kind of bad we didn't do more. Recovering from my Gallbladder surgery has been pretty difficult for me and I haven't had much energy or felt very well. Food doesn't sound great and it's hard to stay motivated and get much accomplished when you don't feel well.
On top of having the Kaleb home for a few weeks, I was trying to prepare for Teacher Appreciation weeks since I agreed to help out with that this year. I also found out that I would be having a Primary Auxiliary training meeting fall right smack dab at the end of the two weeks of Teacher Appreciation. So most of the kids off track time I spent getting ready for these two commitments. It was very stressful!
I did try and do a few things with the kids while they were off track and one was take them to the Chick-Fil-A off track Breakfast that they have for each track that goes off. We had never been to the off track breakfast before, and I though it sounded like something fun for the kids and I to do one morning.The kids ended up having a ton of fun; especially since they go to make a free craft and got to get 3 free mini chicken nugget breakfast sandwiches. The kids also made owl book marks and colored owl pictures. They also had fun playing on the play place equipment! It was a fun morning spent just the three of us. The only thing that would have been better is if Mark could have come with us!
That afternoon, we also went and saw the new Movie, "The Croods." The kids really enjoyed the movie and so did I. It was cute! I am so grateful for my two kids and I truly look forward to when my kids are off track so we can spend quality time with each other.
