Chris is home during the week and works weekends. I work during the week and am home on the weekends. Our schedules often leave us feeling a bit like single parents, but it works really well for Parker. He is not rushed in the mornings, he only goes to school three days a week and they are relatively short days, and he gets a lot of one on one time with each of us. Now, the schedule can be a bit more complicated for Chris and me. We have to take him in the shower with us if we want to bath each day, we plan any computer work and phone calls around his nap schedule (which keeps getting shorter), and with only one set of eyes on him at any given time we can loose him.
Take this morning for example. I went to go answer the phone and in 30 seconds I lost Parker. This time, I really lost him. Parker. Parker where are you? Um, Parker (I say as I am starting to run around the house), I finally scream, PARKER WHAT DOES A DUCK SAY in hopes that I will get a quack from somewhere in the house. Finally, I run to his play area behind the couch for the fifth time and a up pops Parker's head from the toy box. In 30 seconds he managed to empty the toy box and climb inside.
He was quite proud of himself and once my heart stopped beating outside of my chest I grabbed the camera to document the moment.
