I typed a long post, and it evaporated. That's never happened to me before. Would you believe me if I said it was a really good one? Well, you shouldn't.
We are in Christmas mode here. I let the kids decorate the tree this year, so all the ornaments are about three feet up and set in little tableaux. I started to supplement with my own version of tree-decorating, remembered that we're going to Arkansas the day after Christmas and decided to leave it as is. I love when being a generous, good mother conveniently intersects with doing as little as possible to get by. Sigh.
The kids are happy and healthy and driving me nuts. Also, they are cute. See infra.
They are pretty much sickeningly cute, and they are going to be gorgeous adults, and that day is going to come way too fast! I guess what I mean is, they're getting older by the day, in a good way. I can totally see them as 11 year olds, the age I teach, and I know how fast those 11 year olds change into 15 year olds, then they're almost in college and... yeah.
