Daily Diary – October 17 2010

And our Sunday has come and gone. I snapped this photo relatively early in the day and it really speaks to me. He looks so much like me here. A face I make. It’s eerie.

A lot happened this morning. I got some work done. David and I did some vocabulary and phonics. We watched a little TV and I watched a movie. And then Daddy came home!! We all rejoiced. Then we went shopping. I’ve been thinking a lot about food and what to eat more and I will talk more about it this week. After a long shopping trip, we came home and I tried to snap some photos of David. Here’s what he gave me.

And then the smile.

Then I went on my walk and when I came back, nathaniel spent some time putting my socks on and taking them off.

While I was gone, David and Daddy had put together his legos. Some of the pieces had broken so Jake had ordered replacements. Now that they arrived, they could finally finish it.

I cooked dinner for the kids but neither ate it. So most of it went to trash or my belly. Thankfully Jake prepared them for bed so I could be at my desk by 6pm for Brene Brown‘s webinar which i was really looking forward to. I am listening to it right now so i will bid you good night. More tomorrow.

Three Things I’m Grateful For:
1. I am grateful that Jake is back. I miss him deeply. He’s the joy of our life.
2. I am grateful that did finish a lot of work this weekend.
3. I am grateful for my life. for getting to live it fully. for being more in the now than i’ve ever been. i need to cut myself more slack and think more about what i do and whether it’s where i want to spend my life. but i am really grateful for it.
