I realized that it has been a while since my last post. And, that post wasn't even about current events! I have a moment in between my mom taxi duties, so I thought I would write something. Anything.
The Peach will be 8 months old tomorrow. A month ago she didn't have teeth. Today she has 2 tiny ones on the bottom. They started to emerge about 2 weeks ago. I wish I had a picture, but every time I try to look in there she sticks her tongue out. She continues to be the happy go lucky baby that loves her mama.
B signed up for Chess Club after school once a week. He LOVES it. I even got a phone call from the coach telling me that he is such a pleasure to have in class. He is a great listener and keeps his table on task. I felt like I would explode, I was so proud. Last year, the phone calls I got were, "We need you to come pick up B, for reason XYZ." I am so glad that we moved him to a different school. He is in the right classroom and he is thriving.
This morning when I was driving E to preschool, he started singing a song about preschool and how much he likes it. I am so happy that I don't have to leave a kicking and screaming kid at school this year. Those crocodile tears get me every time. Now, he just blows me a kiss and runs out to play. My little E is growing up. Way too fast. I think he knows it, too. He is always telling me that he doesn't want to die and he wants to be with me forever. Man, I could cuddle that kid all day long.
Me? What have I been up to? You know, the regular day to day grind. I also started volunteering for the school's eScrip program, so I have that to add to the pile on my desk. What is this pile on my desk? I should go through it. I was recently asked to be a co-author on a new blog all about living and raising a family in Arizona. I was completely flattered that I was asked to contribute and I can't wait to start drafting content. Am I worried that I won't be able to keep up? I mean, you know how often I post here. I think that since I am accountable to someone else, it will get done. When I just have to answer to myself, I tend to procrastinate. Just ask the Photoshop program that is still in the box up on my shelf. You feel me? Photoshop and I need to go on a weekend staycation. Just the two of us and Scott Kelby's book. Amazing things could happen then. I might forget to feed myself, but hey, at least I would have amazing pictures to show for it. I wonder if Prince Charming would mind.
Speaking of the daily grind, it is time to get lunches ready for the wee ones and then zip off with the littlest one to pick up the not so little one. Sometime soon I will write about what I want to be when I grow up. But don't expect that anytime soon. Photoshop and I have a date. But not before I go out on a date with Prince Charming. Good thing that is tonight!
