A friend who takes photos reminded me to get shots of when things are not ok too. Believe it or not, things are not always ok around here. Friends sometimes seem amazed at the peaceful and patient parenting in my home but goodness, that is not always how it is. If only!
Part of the reason to blog for me is because I have a medically broken memory. I don’t remember so many thing most people do, I simply can’t. I don’t remember the day I was married, the day my first daughter was born, or much of the day my second was born and so many other important moments. I forget people who are important to me. I have to write things doing so I can remember, pictures however are the best. I can look at a photo and while I can really remember the moment at all, it still makes me smile. So this is a recording of the year, and there are tears sometimes too.
This is hansom. He has a problem transitioning from activity to activity sometimes. It is not uncommon for his age and like others he often responds best to making sure they knew when things will happen, giving him a 10 minute, 5 minute, 2 minute warning. However sometimes I forget (what a shock right? LOL) and sometimes it just is not possible and so tears sometimes happen. He didn’t want to go in the house and it was dinner!
