Hi Honey!
I wanted to write you a quick note. Life keeps getting away from me, and I wind up wanting to record so much and getting so little down. It happens fast!
We had a great day today, you and me.
We went to Hobby Lobby (you in a hilariously fluffy white tutu) together and they had put all the Christmas decorations out. You were in heaven. You wanted EVERYTHING, you touched everything (so glad we're to a stage where I trust you with things that are fairly fragile), you made families out of the big and small nutcrackers. You told strangers about your sister.
We bought TONS OF PAINT!
I wonder if when you read this you'll still be as into art as you are right now. I wouldn't be the least bit surprised...it's been fairly stable, art has always been your happy place.
We painted apples today (You traced cardboard shapes of apples and painted them in.) Tomorrow we'll cut them out and glue them to a colored sheet for a background and we'll send them to Alyssa and Heather.
What else was silly about today?
We've been listening to Seeds of Worship: Courage this week--I bought it a few days ago and you listened to nearly the whole thing while I held you and looked out the back door. You've been very sick with the flu and needed some extra cuddle love.
Today, even though you were mid-painting, when I put on the music you came straight over and asked to be held again. We danced together and went bananas crazy bouncing around to "Don't be Anxious!!!" It's cute to watch you try to sing the songs. You'll really know them soon. I wish I had a camera in my brain. I don't want to forget you, open mouthed and smiling and laughing, throwing yourself from side to side, ponytail flying and you bounced up and down in my arms. We were both cracking up so hard.
Well, you're coughing still and I should check on you and then go to bed.
I love you honey. More later.
Love,
Momma
