What my daughter knows

I find that Ellie knows more about stress and time management than I do. A few minutes ago while I was working on the computer, I found a teapot and teacup suddenly dumped into the crook of my arm.

It took me a minute to realize what had happened. Then I looked up and saw Ellie's expectant face in front of me.

"Are you telling me it's time for a tea party?" I asked.

"Yes." Ellie nodded confidently.

We proceeded to have several cups of tea, and the computer didn't mind at all.

Back on the road with Baby Bear

I am going to start updating this again.

It's about time to start updating you on the growth of Baby Bear. She's almost 20 months old now, and changing every day.

Tonight she's discovered Halloween costumes and refused to take off her lion costume before bed. It's pretty cute to see my little lion curled up with her two stuffed cats.

We're navigating the land between school, work, and life now. It's much more complicated than I expected when we were waiting for her to come. However, I think it is actually more rewarding too.

More coming soon...
