I started a tradition back in college / high school of doing a large puzzle on New Years Day. This year we started on New Year's Eve. We never get it done in one day. Our child care still lacks on Puzzle Day. We were gone for awhile on Wednesday dropping off Laci and when we got back, Calvin was clearly done with puzzle day and kept asking "Is the puzzle done yet?!?" He was banned from puzzle day on Tuesday when he started to take it apart. He keeps thinking we are "playing puzzle". Fortunately, the kids are getting a little older and can entertain themselves a little bit. Laci even tried to help with the puzzle too. But I still found myself just setting out crackers, peanut butter, grapes and cheese on the table and calling Calvin over for dinner instead of actually making a good dinner. In my defense, he was playing "puppy" and kept referring to himself as "Puppy Calvin" so setting out food like a dog wasn't too far fetched.
At the end of Wednesday, we were over half done with puzzle hopefully tonight or Saturday we can finish it up. And pay a little more attention to our children. :)
