Dear God,
Thank you for this amazing, miraculous, beautiful child and happy family. Even on bad days, the wonder of it floods me with joy and gratitude.

Eavesdropping
There's nothing better than listening to E and his fanciful bathtub play (complete with different voices) while I lie on our bed. I get a break, he enjoys himself, AND it's cute.

My Favorite Christmas Shopping Discovery
Here it is.
So cool. Yes it works. And they even make a size you can carry in your pocket. Great for work.

The Cliffs Notes
I have some lovely holiday images to share with you at some point, but that requires real computer blogging versus my much more common iPod scribble. Thus, you get this post for now from our crazy part of the world...
1. E turned three and suddenly realized that pee pee can be (somewhat) controlled! Yay!
2. In related news, pooing on the potty is THE END OF THE WORLD.
3. Lovely for us that he's still not potty trained because our daycare lady informed us she's retiring.
4. IN TWO WEEKS.
5. Are you aware how much harder it is to get into an affordable daycare with an un potty trained child? No? A LOT harder.
6. Beware the caps. Shit's been going down.
7. In happy news, we had a truly beautiful 3rd Birthday party. The first real one we've thrown.
8. I'd share photos, but my computer decided to join the make life difficult for Barb club.
9. Allergies are plaguing the house.
10. E told me I couldn't kiss his belly anymore. :( "just my cheek mommy."oh my God, I don't think I'm ready for this.
11. I'm really thinking about observing a Quaker (Friends) meeting. Seriously. Anyone have any thoughts on that?
12. I have a few relatives who would, I'm sure, feel that I've been seduced by the Devil because it's what I want to hear. But they still love me. I'd almost rather they just denounce me as a sinner and be done with it.
13. Once again in related news, I've deactivated my Facebook account. I may go back at some point, but it's most likely to be minus a few people and perhaps under a different name.
14. Happy Tuesday!

My Merry Christmas
Quick post before work, because that's how it's rollin' lately:
This song reflects how I've felt about Christmas my whole life. It's always been a balm for me even in the hard times. It's called, "This Good Night is Still Everywhere" by Dustin Kensrue. Highly recommend his Christmas album.
I know somewhere the sun is up and it's 95 degrees,
But here the stars are shining and there's frost on all the trees,
And everything looks beautiful as far as I can see,
And this good night is still everywhere to me.
The gospel's on the radio like Jesus come to town,
And right outside my window I see snowflakes falling down,
And everything looks beautiful as far as I can see,
And this good night is still everywhere to me.
The children in bed dreaming, the fire's blazing bright.
My true love nestles near me in the sweet and silent night,
And everything looks beautiful as far as I can see
And this good night is still everywhere to me.
