So it's been super-long since I've blogged. Yes, Facebook has eaten away at my computer time. But so often when I'm on there posting pictures or whatever, I'm wishing I could add a bunch of commentary to what I'm posting. So this is where I do it, right? Well, I'll try....
Okay, was that my 2-year-old who just came out of her room from her nap mostly unclothed because "I couldn't get them back on." Why did she take them off? No answer.
And was it Emma 2 nights ago crying for me at 10:30 PM from the bathroom, again unclothed and with her hair soaked and the hand soap pump in her hands and lots of soapy, lathery bubbles in her hair? Why? "Because I couldn't get it out."
Sigh.
Somehow though, (because she's the "baby"?) I don't get angry with her, and I manage to make it all right for her again. Because it's easy right now. Putting clothes back on, washing hair in the middle of the night, praying the monsters away -- that's all easy. And as tiring as it may be, I have this feeling that it's nothing compared to the things that she'll need to be made right in the future. Things that maybe I can't make right for her. But that's all down the road. So right now I'm enjoying her sitting on my lap, watching me type, smelling her sweet (clean!) hair, and even her whining for some apple juice ("Pretty please?")
So I'm off. For apple juice.
