Lovely, quiet day today. I got my hair done, Jake did the last of the errands we had to do for David’s birthday and we’re all set. The rest of the day was quiet and not hugely productive.
Here’s Nathaniel by David’s table again. He’s so so cute. They are so cute. It makes me so proud and happy to see them together.
And here’s one of the little boy.
And the not-so-little boy.
Love them both to bits.
Note to Self:
I am always anxious when I leave Jake with the kids and I call him all the time or text him or im with him. I used to think that’s cause I worried about the kids. The fact is, I worry about him. I want to make sure they are not wearing him down or he’s not getting frustrated. The funny thing is, he is always calm and wonderful with the kids and never gets mad at me. Realizing it all made me remember that I cannot control his feelings and experiences but I can control mine and I decided to let it go. Let myself enjoy the little alone/down time I get and let him have fun with the kids and the special time he gets with them. Everyone is happier.
Three Things I’m Grateful For:
1. My Sony reader. I love my reader. I love all the books it has. I love how small it is. How I have it with me everywhere.
2. I love the way my hair looks when I leave the hairdresser and I love how my hair dresser is so awesome and knows exactly what I like.
3. I love having a todo list that’s all full of optional-only things. Nothing that must get done. Woohoo.
I just went “aiyoh” (a Cantonese term of exclamation) when I saw the first picture. So cute. Thank you for posting pictures of your boys.
Hey! That little guy of yours is getting some hair! Ah, we just finished up with Riley’s birthday party today – Wednesday is his actual day and I like having the kiddie party part over with. I’m still pretty sick, decided I am going to call in sick tomorrow just so I can get some real rest, the kind of rest I can only get when Riley is in school. Plus I have to make his cake – he has asked for Pikachu and that might be a two-day affair for me since I am culinary challenged.
