quiet times

I've made it a goal to have a quiet time with my boy, whether it be to color and create, or to eat a snack with mom.  This is besides reading books, counting everything, learning the alphabet, helping with chores, helping cook, helping clean, outside time, and taking a mini nap (which most days he skips).  It's a way we both can sit down and take a breather from life.  We sit and just smile at each other, not many words, no bcakground noises, everything is off and far away.  I like it and I hope he remembers it forever! I sure will.

Soymilk and "Maria's cookies."

I LOVE being a mom!
