...I was able to sleep in. This morning, even though Claire was gone and I could sleep in, I woke at 5...and at 6...and at 7.
...I had all my Christmas decorations packed up by New Years. This straggler will be packed up this weekend.
...I had the time, or took the time, to read. Two years ago, I read 130 books. Last year, 30 books. And this year, if my pace continues, I'll be lucky to read 15.
...our third bedroom was used only for storage. Now it's my favorite room in the house.
...I didn't know what Veggie Straws were. These days I have to keep myself from eating them all so Claire has some for ST.
...I didn't have this girl to keep me on my toes, always busy and on the move.

ReplyDeleteOur lives change irrevocably after kids, don't they? But I wouldn't have it any other way.
ReplyDeleteI love this post!!! Some days I look around my house and think "when did this happen?" My house use to be clutter free, clean and in order...now, well now it's not! LOL The good news is it's filled with laughter and love and that's worth the mess!
ReplyDeleteClaire's room is darling! I love the blocks on the wall!!!
As much as our lives change after having kids and even though you have monments when you wish you could do whatever you wanted with out any thought to another persoon who counted on you for everything you wouldn't change it for anything.
