The best greating in the morning....

David carried Hannah in and she looked at me and smiled and said "mommy."

Molly came in and asked "Mom can we cuddle?" She then hopped in and cuddled up, holding my hand.

Not having to get up and rush out the door.

Waking up after an uninterrupted quality night's sleep.

My little ballerina

Molly had a recital this past weekend and she stole the show. It was so exciting seeing her up on the big stage, confident and having fun! She is such a ham! Video to come once it has been edited.

I want to remember....

...Molly and my student's dancing and grooving tonight at the promotion party it was great and I got to see a new side of many of my students. They are amazing people. They encouraged Molly to join them dancing and even watched out for her when she was in the middle of the group. We all had a great time.

...The power we have as people and as teachers. I make a difference in my student's lives everyday. I want to be sensitive to the fact that for good or bad, I make a difference. May the positives out weigh the negatives, like they did today.

... Molly is 3. Hannah is 9 months. Even when they don't act like it.

Molly did it! She really did it!

Molly decided that she is too big for pull-ups at night. So she in very Molly style said "I am too big for pull-ups now you know Mom." An for the past 3 nights she has gone to bed and awakened dry! I am amazed how she is growing so fast and so in control of herself and her development. She is an amazing young lady.

Hannah cheered the accomplishment!

Hannah did it! She really did it!

Hannah has been working on her crawling for a while now, but tonight, she made it very clear she is off and crawling. Molly and I were in the bathroom getting ready for bath time and Hannah was in the living room playing. Daddy was in the kitchen cleaning up and keeping an eye on her. She crawled up the stair, across the kitchen and into the bathroom. It was so exciting to see her so determined to be part of the group and mobile. I am so excited!

Molly cheered the accomplishment!
