Thank heaven for little girls

I love this picture of Hayley and Whitney dancing. I feel so blessed to have two little princesses in my family. They are the love of my life.

Crazy Mom Moment

This is Whitney making snow angels--in April. But that's not the crazy moment. The crazy moment came the next day when I turned in Whitney's kindergarten registration papers. It seems so crazy that she is this old. What happened to my chubby little baby who couldn't roll over because she was shaped like Buddah?
It use to be that after work my life was full of playing with a little baby and supervising a very active toddler. Now, it is not uncommon for both my daughters to want to go play at a friend's house when I come home from work. So, I find myself in an interesting position: alone. What do I do with myself? I know many of you are thinking: Miriam, you are crazy. You take a nap, read a book, do something you want to do. But, I find myself completely at a loss. I'm not sure how to feel about my girls not needing me every second of every day. It's a very strange, somewhat uncomfortable feeling. I'm sure it will be divine once I adjust. It's just really crazy right now.
