2001---the year Den and I were married. I remember being in a Maui bed and breakfast watching the Inaugural parade on TV, being so happy I was not there (I think it was even raining). It's been so long since we have had a leader (sorry if you're from the other side of the aisle and are offended), but I am so happy
to finally feel like we've got someone to lead us.As I mentioned, I was stuck at home today. Eddie excitedly commented that he was wearing dog pj's and J wearing cat pj's and that we *had* to take a photo. Then I couldn't get them to pose together--this is the closest I could get.
Eddie then wanted to take a picture of Josie and me.
The last picture was taken just after Barack Obama was sworn in. I had the kids eating so I could mostly pay attention. I hosted Eddie's preschool class for a playdate to help pass the morning. There were 9 kids and 5 adults and folks stuck around until around noon, so I didn't get to go to Market Square with the kids, but it was probably too cold anyway.
Really really hope Cookie went to DC, or I will be monumentally unhappy.
I can't win with trying to wake up before the kids. Monday I set my alarm for 5:15, hoping I'd have some time. J woke up about 5:20. Tuesday I set my alarm for 5:45, hoping again for some time. We were all downstairs by 6. maybe I should set my alarm for 8am?
One thing I've learned from these last three days as I've grown more and more tired is that the kids and I do great when I feel well rested. When I haven't gotten enough sleep, I sure do make trouble around the house. Hoping for more sleep tonight. Is 8:30 too early for bed?
