Day 10

Today was a little more eventful than yesterday. Nathaniel was still sick, but the medicine he takes works like a miracle drug from morning til about late afternoon. After taking it he got changed and Heloise, Zach, Nathaniel and I took Josh to school, and then I drove to Zachary's pre-school. We dropped him off and I drove home. - I am getting much more comfortable behind the wheel, and am more comfortable with the width of the vehicle -

Once we got home I did my Wii Fit. I've decided I will work out every Tuesday and Thursday, as those are the two days that Zachary is at school for about 5 hours. Nathaniel came in to watch, and then decided to try for himself. We did things like tightrope walking (I had to help him with that), heading the footballs, ski jumping, etc.

For lunch Heloise was home so she decided to make Nathaniel's. He asked for the same as yesterday, so she asked what he had. He told her, but then said he wanted it to be in the shape of a face. She told him she doesn't do things like that. Haha. I'm flattered that I've made an impression on him. :p

After lunch we played a little more Wii, and watched some TV. Heloise went out for about an hour, came home and we left to get Zach. I drove. - I'm beginning to know my way around, which helps...and I think that I'll be able to drive by myself next week - We went to pick up Josh but were in a hurry cuz Zach was let out later than usual, so I asked Heloise to drive :p

After we got home Nathaniel wasn't feeling great so he laid on the couch while Heloise made dinner, and Josh, Zach and I went for a walk to the High Street to pick up some Echinacea and to mail some letters. It was nice to just be the 3 of us. I like spending some time with each of them and had been with Nathaniel all day.

We got back and Josh and I got his guitar out. He showed me what he's learned so far, and then I tried. We have made a deal that after school every Wednesday, he will show me what he was taught and we will learn to play together. It should be fun, and hopefully it keeps him interested in his lessons. I told him if he ended up enjoying guitar, we would go to the music shop and pick out a Beatles book or something with songs he'll know so that he'll be able to tell if he's playing them right.

Supper time, then I sat with Zachary to help him with some work books that he loves, and the 3 of them soon went off to bed. Now I'm watching "How I Met Your Mother", and it wont be much longer until I'm in bed.

Until tomorrow x
