We had a lovely Thanksgiving which we spent with Natalie and Eric at Eric’s dad’s house. It was nice to have a year off of hosting, but I do miss the leftovers. Sophie had a blast climbing up and down the stairs, dancing to the music, and exploring all the new terrain. She also fell asleep in Jamie’s arms which was definitely heartwarming to see. When we are given one of those moments of deep affection, it’s important to not let them just slide by without notice.
Tonight I am letting my house remain messy, the laundry unfolded, the dishes sit dirty. I’ve cooked a (hopefully) delicious dinner and now I just feel like relaxing with my wee one. My considerable load of chores can wait. I’ve a feeling they’ll be there tomorrow.
How are you all?

time passes too fast to spend it doing chores that can wait for the important things to pass by…
beautiful family picture!
It’s always good to remember to treasure those precious moments. We can always do those meaningless things later, but we can’t get back a missed moment with family. Beautiful pictures! I love Sophie’s eyes!
Lovely photos! It’s great to hear Sophie’s doing so well. Seren was really cooperative while I finished mounting a painting and packaging a couple shipments. Then she got all excited about going to the post office and flirted with anyone who would make eye contact… Then we went to the park and explored some new stuff. Just had a little ukulele time before passing out beside me on the couch with a leg thrown over me so I can’t escape. I did laundry, but have not managed the dishes… but they’re not going anywhere fast.
