...Hmmmm, let's just say life has been crazy, hectic, and surreal these past few weeks. I'm glad to see August gone. It was a stressful month. After my recent experiences, I recognize that my life is pretty darn easy most of the time and I should really appreciate all my loved ones. As my mom always says, "Tomorrow isn't promised." So true. Carpe diem, Mama.
Some good things have happened recently. It hasn't been all bad. For example, Clay and I have started going to a "Buttercup Play Group" at the Linden Waldorf School on Friday mornings. It's an early introduction to Waldorf education and it's really adorable. We sing songs, play together, drink tea (Well, I do; Clay pours his all over the table), and play outside.
In addition, we met Clay's new Mother's Day Out instructors this week. He officially starts on Tuesday and I am very excited for him. Mrs. Cynthia and Mrs. Susan are very sweet and their classroom is amazing. I want to stay in there and play all day!
Clay's vocabulary is rapidly expanding. Here are some of my personal favorites: Milk is "Gulk", Watch is "Botch", Volvo is "Bolbo", Fish are "Sheesh", Tufo (Grandma's dog) is "Bupo", and there are oodles more, but I am having trouble remembering them right now. He is 21 months old and such a joy to have around. He is always entertaining us!
Labor Day weekend has been great so far. The weather has cooled down dramatically. We've spent lots of time outside on our screened porch talking and reading. The change in weather was just what I needed to feel relaxed again. I can't wait for Fall. It is my favorite season. Here are a few pictures from last October. They are like a breath of fresh air!
