****Happy New Years Day 2014****
TODAY...
My sweet 3 year old girl played the letter game with me at dinner. We were both finished with our meal and waiting for the rest of our family to finish so we could have dessert. She was getting restless so we took turns asking each other what letter different words start with. This turned into a 30 minute game, and I was bursting with pride at how quickly she could sound out the letters.
My energetic 2 year old boy did quite a bit of testing today, namely in the "throwing things" department. But, right before his nap he asked me to lie with him on the floor. We cuddled for about 5 minutes, during which I snuggled him close and breathed in his almost-not-a-baby-anymore-but-still-so-sweet scent.
I accomplished day 1 of my New Years goals. I did 15 minutes of yoga, which I plan to do every day, and I sat down to write this blog post. (Even though I almost forgot, oops!)
My helpful husband finished cooking dinner for me while I sat on the floor and played with the kids for a few minutes. He then did all the clean-up while I performed the pre-bedtime rituals with the children. I am definitely going to miss him when he goes back to work at the end of this month!
We rang in the New Year quietly and with little fanfare, but it was still a perfect, peaceful family day!
