Midnight Playdates

I sat down to catch up on some blogging – ie family journaling. We’re 6 months behind on family life, and the 4th biggest ever change to come to our family has been rolling on since mid-October.

That is as far I got in my update when I learned an important lesson ("don’t drink coffee at night") while celebrating the fruits of an earlier-learned lesson ("they grow too fast so put your work aside and enjoy these moments"). Claire, my precious downy-haired, teething-rosy-cheeked 8 month old, bolted awake 45 minutes after her last feeding. She wanted to play, examine the snowperson collection in the loft, dance, cuddle, grab toes, giggle and roll. 2 hours later she’s finally asleep. But what a precious time it was between. The blogging can wait. This baby wants to be with Mama. And that’s what I live for.
