thursday are delightfully full for me. sage goes to school, then when she gets home i go to my highly-valued iyengar yoga lesson (twists and forward bends today--ay my hamstrings!), then i am home for an hour before i take sage to the nature center at shaker lakes for a winter outdoor education class (hibernating animals, tree identification, finding animal tracks etc). while she is doing that i take the guys to the literacy playroom at the newly renovated cleve hts library. they run semi-wild and i get to spend time with other moms. other moms are an interesting breed. they are the only ones interested, without being close friends or family, in your kids.
