Major Milestones

our blog has fallen by the wayside. for that matter so has order/cleanliness in our home, already-iffy gym routines, and life's general upkeep, like scheduling a hair cut!



did you count those candles? i've been caught in the 100th day of school whirlwind. the kids have been working on their museum collections, gearing up as tour guides, and 100s day math work. for 5-6 year olds 100 is a big deal--recognizing all the double digist #s, counting, adding, intro to grouping and multiplication. big deal stuff, so you make it a big celebration.

the kids were totally excited and like a parent on christmas, it was rewarding to see them tickled. however, their joy wasn't the best part of the 100th day of kindergarten. i got home and flopped on the couch. truthfully i was not the best company--exhausted and cranky. and just then, jason handed me a folded piece of paper. i opened it and started crying as i read aloud the most thoughtful thing jason has done for me since our dating days, "100 Reasons Jason Loves Erica".

Congrats on 100 days of more than full-time Kindergarten work! That is a major milestone, Erica. And what a nice husband Jason is to help you celebrate.

Jason's always been so thoughtful. "Bengals Bib" is proof, like when does a single college guy go buy your baby a gift? Not to mention a totally sweet one!
