Life Happens
This little person and us have hit a rhythm.
We wake up (hopefully not super early because our furnace kicks in), we have our routines, we say "bye bye" and get kisses on the cheek (this is our newest trick). We go to our homes for the day and then I rush back to get my little girl once school is over.
Every day she greets me with her mouth agape and crawls or walks over to me. She hugs me tight and shows me around her classroom. We get dressed and giggle in the car while we listen to music, eat cheerios and point out the new body part we're learning that day. We get home, she knocks the door knocker and opens the mailbox, and waits for me to get undressed so we can get a snack and drink half a sippy cup of water. She walks around and makes sure all of the TV remotes are where they need to be, plays some piano and then we make dinner. We eat all sorts of randomness and then play a little more until it's time for bath.
She doesn't mind getting clothes pulled on or off as much anymore. She understands that there is an order to things and helps along with the process. She keeps it calm as long as she's warm and fed.
Yan and I work side by side and then head up to bed and the whole process starts again.
Such is life. It's tiring, but it's still kinda wonderful. And I do like her more with each passing day as it gets easier to understand where she's coming from and where she'd like to head to next.
Walking is exciting and this summer is something I truly look forward to as a time where we can go walk around and explore the new world around us. :)
