Here are my Lessons Learned in no particular order, as they are all equally important life lessons that I am willing to share with you. You're welcome!
1. If you live in the PacNW, it WILL rain during Spring Break. EVERY.SINGLE.DAY
2. If you live in the PacNW, you BETTER have indoor activities in mind.
3. If you don't have indoor activities in mind, planned, etc...by about 10am, cooped up in the house, you will lose your marbles. EVERY.SINGLE.DAY
4. You really can say "Get out of the refridgerator" a thousand times, along with "Go play in your room", "No, you can't ride your bike in the house" amoung many other things that due to my losing my marbles (on day 2), I have forgotten the rest at this point.
5. No matter the choices you give your children for breakfast and lunch, after having made their chosen breakfast or lunch, they WILL want what you are having instead.
6. Riding a skateboard in the house WILL inevitably put a hole in a wall. And sliding down the stairs on your belly will give you a rug burn. Don't try this at home kids.

8. When kids eat lots of strawberries. They have to go poop A LOT. (Thank goodness I stocked up on toilet paper).
9. SpongeBob is ANNOYING. I used to like him but after watching essentially a SpongeBob marathon one of the said rainy afternoons, not so much.
10. You will NEVER be able to get both kids to sleep/rest at the same time. Stop spinning your wheels. Nap time. If they only knew what they will be missing. If I could take a nap everyday, I would.
I love my kids. I do. I do. And I love spending time with them. I do. I do. But a little to much of a good thing, can be a buzz kill. Just sayin.
