10 on 10 July
July! I really do not understand how the days keep slipping out from under my feet. Nothing changes and nothing changes and then a month is gone and then a year. It's nice to have 10 on 10 because change is slow and ever present with kids. You're going along and then all of a sudden you realize that things are nothing like they used to be, though you can't remember them changing.
So I will love waking up snuggled next to this one for as long as I can, in spite of her morning squirming and mosquito bite itching.
Soft, bright summer mornings.
And then we sat around the house all day waiting to sign for a camera in the mail and in all the nothingness, I forgot it was 10-on-10 day. My mom even visited and I didn't take a single picture. Amazing how I can remind myself relentlessly and still forget when I'm in the middle of a project. :O)
The fairy donning her beloved gloves as we waited for the mail truck.
Testing out the camera. These don't count towards the ten, I swear!
Bella playing big sister, realizes she can undo Lia's helmet all herself.
Hopscotch after a painful math lesson. She drew this one all herself and left the numbers out this time.
Quiet time in the kitchen while I cook.
My view while cooking. I love our new white cabinets.
Daddy's home!
And to bed. They always pick him instead of me, and by bedtime I have to agree!
