Hi Dear Reader.
It's late Saturday night. I just gave Baby J
a very quiet bath and fed him and put him to bed.
I asked him to sleep until 8am.
He didn't say anything, just looked at me.
We'll see how that goes.
I was just sitting here trying to decide if I got much done today or not. It seemed like I was always busy, doing this and that. We got some stuff done, but it's not like I can point to specific things. "I moved that mountain. I built that statue." I kind of feel like I don't have much to show for my efforts. And you can just look around this house and see 147 other things that need to be done. But the shoe thing in the garage is cleaned out. The high chair is almost ready to come to the kitchen. As is the saucer/play thing (what do you call those round things that you put babies in?). Lots of laundry got done. People got fed. Several times. And the kitchen is clean.
I haven't laid out clothes for anyone for tomorrow.
I did lay out most of the ingredients for the French Country Casserole I'll be making for our lunch tomorrow. I'm kind of going back and forth between what I did do and what I didn't get done.
Do you ever do that? Look back on a day as it is closing and find that you aren't quite able to make sense of it?
Oh well. It's late and I need sleep as much as anything.
I better get a jump on it in case Baby J decides not to do
as I asked him. He might just wake up at 2am and want
to party just to spite me. I sure hope not.
He is a rascal though. Just look at him.
Oh, that precious baby.
I could just eat him up.

He is so precious...and so are you.

Two things:
1. My mom says to try to do one thing every day that is not easily undone, even if it is only cleaning out one drawer. That way when you feel like all you do is cook and clean and wash clothes and start over, you can see something that you accomplished
2. I have realized there is always going to be a lot more to do. So, just pat yourself on the back for all that you did instead of noticing all that needs to be done. When our children are grown, we can have a perfect house. For right now, kiss that sweet baby!
I meant to tell you when you posted those photos last week that that one of Baby J reminds me of you. In the one of all of them on the bed I think he has Big E's eyes.
I'd love to have the casserole recipe.
