I propose that this year's fall resolution--don't resolutions make so much more sense in the fall?--starting school, the quiet crisp air, (the jews have the right idea celebrating the new year in the fall--anyway--i promise that this year's fall resolution will be more creation, less media consumption. more time with the guitar. I'm serious about these songs we're writing--i think some of them are really clever--and I've just got to learn some guitar. Your Uncle Nathan has gotten so good! I know he's worked hard for that--but it is a pleasure to hear him play--he is innately musical in a way dad is not. I hope I am that way. Sometimes i worry i'm too studied, and not with that innate musical talent either. but hopefully I do, it just comes out differently. On good days I'd like to think that.
So it was a really lovely trip to Lummi Island, wasn't it? The walks down to the store in the early morning with you and your daddy were my favorite. Such a simple thing. but so divine, and I felt so in tune with the world around us.
I still don't know if this blog is for me or you!
I love having you in the ergo. You feel so safe up there on my back, with your little head against my shoulder blades. It was fun checking out the tidepools and seeing the "little water."
Another day we will write about "sheisse and your keen sense of naughty words--it doesn't get funnier than that!
You loved spending time with the girls. I could tell you were a bit shy of course, but mostly just ready to move right into the mayhem and frolicking. That was so fun for you. "meep meep" "Cordy just like the girls!"
I am amazed at how quickly you are picking up the french! "Un, deux, trois, and ca y est! c'est tout, c'est fini" I don't want you to ever feel pressured, but you're such a verbal girl, it seems like you just eat it up! You look so proud of yourself when you say your numbers in french! It's so adorable. C'est si adorable! We have to get you a french alphabet book. And maybe some Babar.
Alright, I's got to get to sleep.
love,
your mama
