PDO

Molly's last day of PDO was last week. We were SO blessed to have Kathy and Julie be her teachers this year. For the first time Molly loved being away from us for awhile and really enjoyed her time at "school". I couldn't have hand-picked better teachers! We will always remember them!

Here is Molly on her first day in September.

Ordinary Day

A few days ago I listened to this about the importance of ordinary days. I'll warn you now it's SAPPY, but a good reminder of how fleeting these days are.

I took the day off today and we spent a family day together. It was wonderful, breakfast out, a long day at the museum, and an evening of cooking out, eating ice cream and watching American Idol...together.

These are the most important things in my life. Everything else will have to take a backseat...and I'm slowly, very slowly, realizing that's OK.

Mother's Day

I can't believe I get to be her mom. I'm the lucky one.
