Daily Diary – August 9 2010

Today was a hectic work day. Not much else got done so I am glad I did a bunch of tasks last night. I do still have another layout to do for the AMM kit but overall, I am ok to wait a bit until a bunch of my goodies come in the mail. I got my December Daily album today. I think I might spend some of August and September putting my album together. I like doing it early.

We took a short break to meet David’s friend and my neighbor at the local playground and then he went home with his friend to play and I didn’t take any photos for a long time today. But when David was back at home, he was happy to see Nathaniel and gave him some hugs.

And me some funny faces.

Nathaniel is focusing a lot harder lately. Working on his fine motor skills. Using forks. Putting things together.

And those teeth are almost almost out! All of them.

David and I did a bunch more reading today. We’re on lesson 29. I feel we’re going a bit fast but he’s so excited and I do make sure we do everything in the lessons. It’s so nice to see him read. So so nice. So I am off to go back to the craziness of work and have some layouts to do and maybe (just maybe) I can read for a few minutes.

I hope your monday was calmer than mine.

Three Things I’m Grateful For:
1. I am grateful for my job. Despite feeling burned out. whiny, and tired sometimes. I love my job. So much.
2. I am grateful for this summer. We’re having such a quiet and wonderful summer that’s not full of tasks. not rushed. no drama. i love it.
3. I am grateful that David has a fun friend so closeby. This was the first time he was somewhere without me (or Jake) and I am so happy he had fun.

Two Things David’s Grateful For:
1. playing with Ece at the playground
2. eating jellybeans at Ece’s
3. Playing legos with Ece
4. daddy.
