catch-up and good bye...for a little while

I cannot guarantee anything here until at least July 2: date of master's completion. until then, I am just way too busy and dread this place. I read your comments but have no intelligent words left of my own. so, as it is the first day back from Spring Break and I am not yet crazy busy (starts tomorrow), I feel I should document some things.

the past month was full of fun and adventure! okay, maybe not quite with that enthusiasm, but a lot has happened. because I like the way lists look on blogs, here's mine for the month of March:

1. I finished my first worksample for my teaching license. this insane, 148-page monster was my document of one unit taught to one class showing the students learned something. pretty cool.

2. Penny turned 1! goodbye baby, hello toddlerhood. I am now the mother of two toddlers. and they're not twins. ha.

3. Penny's walking! she just up and walked. heard of it happening but hadn't ever see it. and it happened right after her birthday. it was as if she decided now that she is 1, she's too old for crawling.

4. took a trip with Harper to see Eugene. it was lovely from the car. of course, the day we go is the day it begins to rain. not rain, pour. we can handle rain, we live in Portland. but the pour was too much. will return.

5. when I get a real job I will hire someone to clean my house once a week just so I never have to clean a shower curtain again. or dust. or mop.

6. found out dogs will throw up if they eat too much corn.

7. decided I hate the way it feels to be home without my husband. it was 4 days of agony. I missed him by the end of the 1st.

8. I married the right person.

9. photos from this month I really love

Penny enjoying the sun, tulips and taste of dirt.



walking, belly first.


every time I look at this picture
I love Harper a little more.


my girls. sisters. best friends.


everybody run! (see #8 above)
farewell web friends! I will keep reading but leave the writing for inspired musts and witty moments. thanks for reading and I'll see you in July!

edited to add: apparently I'm not the only one loving lists. here's another. and another. and yet another. must be something in the water.

  1. Good luck finishing! I look forward to seeing how much the girls have changed in that time!
