Slacker Mom

Oh my gosh! I’m such a slacker. No posts in 3 1/2 months. Well, needless to say I’ve been a bit busy. I lead two worship services at church from Labor Day until January 3rd, 2010. I’m so glad Don got better and returned to church. I enjoyed my experience, but it really reminded me that my time needs to be spent focusing on Kate right now.  So now I’m a free woman again. Able to decide how Kate and I will spend our days. She’s changed dramatically in the past three months. She can say “mama,” she can walk about 10 steps by herself, she is eating some table foods, she has gained 5 lbs. and now weighs in at a mighty 20 1/2 lbs, and she giggles each time her daddy throws her high into the air. Life is good. Motherhood is the best. I cherish each day and don’t want her to grow up…but I know she will. And my job know is to teach and guide and model the things I want her to learn. Oh my, I’d better grow up and become civilized very quickly! So hopefully my slackerhood has come to an end. I will try to be more diligent with my posts so that one day Kate can look back and see her life through my eyes.
