fifteen

I am grateful for the small moments --

106  655 AM A smiling wake up with baby
107  745 AM - watching my girl bravely storm off to conquer the world.  Or first grade
108  815 AM - returning home to a quiet house, where I can savor my time alone with baby 
110  830 AM - curling up together to have a nap
111  930 AM _ "I love you text" from the Daddy
112  1015 AM - The dining room table is 1/2 cleared of the paperwork, mail, etc, that has built up since we brought Baby home. 
113  1140 AM  - A delicious new recipe turned out well - my "practice" for the neighbors' holiday gifts
114  1142 AM - which I got to sample just before the baby woke up
115  1215 PM - Shower. :) in peace and quiet. 
116  1222 PM - New bra and undies.  Glorious.  After the preggo-panties, I was ready for something pretty.  Pink with chocolate brown polkadots. 
117  1223 PM  - Baby awake again and smiling as usual.  I am so blessed.
118  130 PM  - Phone call from Dad.  My dad.  I love to hear his voice.
119  315 PM - The girl is home and bursting with news of her day - including the speaking part she won for next week's Thanksgiving play.
120  430 PM  - The three girls watching (ahem. "helping") the Daddy plant yet another tree in his ongoing backyard-improvement kick.
...more tomorrow
