Four afternoons

 

Although we have a few mom-and-wyatt mornings every week, I have no kid to hang out with four afternoons a week now.  Mid September Wyatt started up cooperative preschool again, this year in the 4/5s class.  So far, it seems to be good for both of us. He looks forward to seeing his friends every day and is usually adequately worn out by 4 p.m. when I pick him up.

I have two afternoons a week to devote to my legal practice, plus one afternoon for myself.  The other coop day is my "work day," which means I'm at preschool too -- helping in the classroom (or like last week, driving to Oxbow Farms for a field trip).

We've settled into a pretty good rhythm of school and a predictable weekday schedule, which now includes a bit of work for me.  Unlike when I began this blog, I am not, strictly-speaking, taking a career intermission any longer.  More about that soon . . .

For now, here are a few pictures from lately -- some of our mornings together and afternoons apart.

The Straw Maze at Swansons is fairly empty in the mornings.
