The best advice I could ever give a new Mommy is that exactly ^^ Don't blink.... Ever! As Char's 1 year birthday is barreling at me at insanely high speeds I am realizing more and more everyday that I did in fact blink. Despite the above advice, I managed to focus more on the future than on the present and now that is the past. Besides a couple videos, I barely remember what Sarah's baby-talk voice was like. How it feels to hold a newborn. How often do we get frustrated and blink? Nod those moments out of memory, holding them to be inconsequential, slightly insignificant. I realized that this morning as a fit of frustration took hold and I stormed off to the pantry to grab yet another cracker to keep at least some of the whining at bay. It wasn't until I was switching laundry five minutes later that Charlotte was whining, yes, but she was whining 'Please', not just baby talk. When exactly did she start saying please??
On to brighter topics, have I said that I love to cook recently? A hershey's chocolate cake is on tap for after dinner, and dinner will be barbequed beef sandwiches on homemade rolls, braised carrots, and mashed potatoes! Yum yum! Company coming tonight!
