Around the House






In the past couple of weeks I've been fighting quite the summer cold. This, of course, means that we've been spending quite a bit of time at home. I've had the opportunity to catch C in some of the sweetest moments. She's slowly learning how to play for short bits of time by herself. It's something I have to enforce a bit, but it's something she does need to know how to do, for the sanity of us both. She's discovered her dolls, and that she can play pretend with them. She's taking some time to "read" her books by herself, and she loves her crafts lately. She's constantly clamoring for us to make something. When Daddy was home for a four-day weekend, he even got to sit down and paint with her. The show of the moment is Mickey Mouse Clubhouse. She even does "The Hot Dog Dance" when the show's not on. She wants me to dance with her too. One would think that I'd be getting plenty of exercise this way. I wish. It's days that are filled with moments like these that motherhood seems easy and lovely, or if not these, at least not so frustrating.
