I still work one day a week at a CPA firm, but work several additional hours from home whenever I can. I was having computer issues and needed to run into my office one morning. John was at work, so I had to take all 3 with me. I needed 10 minutes, how much damage could they do in 10 minutes, right?!
I came prepared.. I printed off coloring pages and cutting sheets to hopefully keep them occupied.
And it worked!!
We have a relatively small office with some open cubes so I set them each up in their own and told them they had to get to work. I can't believe it worked. Rudy was SO impressed by the office. He kept telling me, "Mom, your office is beautiful!" Avery went a little crazy on the 10-key, but other than that I thought they were so great and quiet! In fact, they didn't want to leave. We had to wait for Rudy to finish his work, he was very insistent. Sure, firemen have big firetrucks and snacks, but accountants have calculators and markers! :)
Ben didn't get his own desk... maybe next time, Bub.
A co-worker (the only other person in the office that day, thank goodness!) came over to say hi, and said he had just gotten off the phone with another person we work with. She asked him, "Where are you?? It sounds like you are in a daycare!" ... maybe we weren't so quiet...
