Slipped my mind.

As i had fallen into that peaceful rest right between sleep and the end of the day, i realized, almost mystically, that i had not written my blog last night.  Evidently, i spoke that out loud to my husband (he told me this morning).  But it was not enough to move me out of bed to find my laptop to write about... what would it have been anyway?  
Yesterday was a lay-low kind of day in this house.  We cleaned up and hung out and I sorted my thousands of clothes to get ready for the big consignment sales next week.  We ended up at the park later in the afternoon, enjoying some bit of breeze in the shade, but ultimately sweating buckets in the rest of the sun, so it was not exactly the most fun trip.  M is the only one in our house who doesn't sweat the second she steps outside.  So, of course, she didn't really want to leave the park.
The baby almost walked (but still held on to whatever fears she has.)  At one point, in the mulch at the park, she had my pinky finger held loosely in one hand, and she nearly ran to get to the jungle gym.  It was truly amazing.  It's making me realize just how NOT a baby she is anymore.  It's wonderful to watch her grow, but a bit sad to think that she's such a big girl already!


And that, in a slightly large nutshell, was what we missed in last night's installment of the day-in-a-life of us.  More, as always, to come!
