Day One. Total photos taken today: exactly 100 (!!)
I want to remember…how the present Mark and I got to save for J’s birthday was discovered and he couldn’t wait to give it a try. They played happily for almost an hour, growing and cutting hair. I love how J calls Playdough his “clay”.
I want to remember… that Playdough is messy. So messy.
I want to remember… how much the kids are enjoying school. We are slowly finding a groove and a routine is forming. I definitely was unprepared for the little two’s desire to participate, but what a blessing. I love seeing their four faces around the table, hard at work.
I want to remember… the rules that were told to me when I asked the boys how we act on a playdate: “No fighting. No gettin’ angry. Be respectful. Take care of our brothers…and our Sophie!”
I want to remember… how hilarious Sophia can be. Everyday, she says something that just cracks me up. Today, I overheard her tell TJ, “You gotta kiddin’ me, dude!” Later on, I could hear her giggling as she would peek out at me in the kitchen. When I asked her what she was doing, she ran to the other side of the room, yelling, “I a neen-ja!”
I want to remember… starting a new read-aloud and listening to the boys belly laugh around me. They had me read a particularly funny part over and over.
