I have been terrible about documenting my boys lives in their baby books. This blog I write to them...so they can know themselves throughout their life. It will give them a glimpse of the things we decided to do for them and with them ...Giving this experience called parenthood a shot and trying to be the best parents we know how to be, learning as we go.
the arrival of my pregnant sister and her hubby. They arrive tonight. This will be the last time they visit our home as just two! So exciting. They are insisting Ed and I go on a date - so kind. It will be a great weekend. I can't wait!
Go on a date! Do they want to watch 3 more kids? Together we could provide them with a 8 month old, 1 year, 3 year, 4 1/2, and 5 year old. :) My parents will be here next weekend and we get free babysitting, can't wait!
“The biggest mistake I made [as a parent] is the one that most of us make. . . . I did not live in the moment enough. This is particularly clear now that the moment is gone, captured only in photographs. There is one picture of [my three children] sitting in the grass on a quilt in the shadow of the swing set on a summer day, ages six, four, and one. And I wish I could remember what we ate, and what we talked about, and how they sounded, and how they looked when they slept that night. I wish I had not been in such a hurry to get on to the next thing: dinner, bath, book, bed. I wish I had treasured the doing a little more and the getting it done a little less.”
