I have this nervous tingly-in-my-tummy feeling about leaving San Francisco this weekend. I'm ready to go- but I'm sad to be leaving Micah behind. Regardless, there have been lots of things to be happy about this week!
- Micah's birthday! (see previous post)
- My daughter's fruit addiction- she ate two plums in a single day. She greedily devours nearly every fruit I put in front of her. This means I really have to give her other food first... or she might eat nothing but the fruit.
- Seeing this car when we went shopping the other day:
- My husband!
- This story about chicken babysitters
- The fact that Charlotte regularly eats half of the foods on this list of 10 nutrition powerhouses for kids.
- This website with pictures of a woman's sleeping baby. Oh my goodness. I just keep on going back to this page... the pictures are so neat! Also, she is from Finland, and gets a wonderful maternity leave and big package of clothing for her newborn... from the government. Don't get me started on the American maternal system...
- Buying a 2.5 lb package of blueberries, and getting through the entire package. All three of us had fruit for lunches. I also had the chance to feed my summer cooking hobby by making blueberry cream pie and blueberry sauce for Micah's birthday cake and pancakes.
- Charlotte's current obsession with climbing inside of things to play.
- I'll end with this little story. Yesterday Micah got home from work and sat down next to Charlotte on the couch. Charlotte picked up his arm, scooted in as close as she could, and wrapped her Daddy's arm around her. Now THAT makes my heart happy.
