6.13: Unexpected
Seriously? Not even halfway done?
The Man and I spent the ENTIRE day tag teaming Jamie to finish her science fair project. That doesn't even count the time she spent on it yesterday, or the last few weeks. I She better get an A on this thing.
I just, for the first time I can remember, deleted a whole section of this post because, while everything I was saying was true, it wasn't an appropriate thing for my daughter to find and read someday on the internet. It's important information for me to know and recognize, but not for her to hear from her computer, or for her friends to read.
It's hard to find things about my kids these days that are my story to tell. For the most part babies all experience the same embarrassments, and what a baby is or does doesn't really define or even necessarily indicate what they will be as children or adults.
As a SAHM, I don't have all that many stories that don't revolve around my kids. I should, I know, have a life of my own, but at this point I really don't. My social life is wrapped up in the girls' gym and school. Owen is with me all but 9 hours a week, hours I spend catching up on the mundanities of daily life.
I'm not sure where I'm going with this. It certainly wasn't what I meant to write, but it's the truth, so I'll let it stand.
