I was so far behind, but finally caught up. I don't even have a job, and I fell way further behind than you did! One year olds are kind of a job, though. Yes, yes... definitely a job. It's so hard to keep them from just sauntering (running) into the street or eating broken glass or jumping to their death from the top of the stairs.
I just read a comedic article about how ANY trip with your child is not a vacation. If you're a STAHM, it's just traveling for work. I kind of believe it... We've traveled a few times this summer, and we have to bring so much junk with us and she is just one of the least flexible people I've ever known. I mean, really... how hard can her life possibly be? What is the corner of the brain that says that if she is presented with a non-Eggo waffle for breakfast, albeit one that is very similar, she must resort to starvation? I don't understand. But dammit, I will bring those sodden, thawed Eggos with us in a cooler (also stocked with grapes, blueberries and milk... in all the appropriate fat percentages and flavors), JUST so she wont die.
Yes! Having young children is a BIG, full-time job... been there and done that 5 times over. Many wonderful memories, but glad to be almost into the Grandparent thing. Still LOVE having my 13 year old as well, and I gotta say it, the sheer busy-ness of little ones does get better, but then comes the almost harder work of having more "mature" emotional guidance and "big boy and girl" stuff to tackle. Just as hard, but different.
I gotta say, you are much more accomodating that I EVER was. What I put in front of them (which was almost always what we ourselves were eating) was what they got. They are now very flexible and will eat most anything.


Anyway, CONGRATULATIONS on finishing year one and your boards and getting a great job! How exciting!! I feel like I caught your PTR at just the right time... it's funny how real-time stories work like that. It could be the most boring life story, or could be a very exciting one!
Also, congrats on starting to put together detailed touring plans. I'm four months out... it might be time to get to work!
Thanks!! I start back to it on Friday, after 10 days of lovely, wonderful, soul-refreshing vacation. Then in 4 short weeks it's back to school full throttle. Hopefully, more touring plans very soon!
Yeah I think it may be a medium, but it's too cute/nice for someone to not wear it!. Pm an address, and I promise at some point if I can find it, it will wing it's way to you!
