Life is just so daily...DELIGHTFULLY daily!

I laugh as I sit here reflecting on what I've wanted to write for the past couple of days because two days ago, my plan was to show and tell my schedule for each day... That was Wednesday- I got so busy, I was completely exhausted by the time I had a chance to blog and fell asleep on the couch!!! As a matter of fact that's where Dave found me with the computer in my lap and all! :) Too funny!!!!!

Mary Englebreit is one of my favorite folk artists. This title came from one of her sketches... I had to add "delightfully" daily because although we go through the same motions each day, no day is dull or less gratifying. It shocks me sometimes! You'd think, following a schedule would become mundane or less fulfilling, but it isn't! It never gets daily in the Dodson house! Suzy and Hannah seem to be doing something new and different all the time, and Dave and I enjoy the quiet time we have each evening, if we're not falling asleep on the couch! :)

For example, Hannah, who has been eating cereal for breakfast since she was four months old, has recently started to enjoy eating it! She now opens her mouth wide to eat each bite then follows her spoon with her open mouth all around. Her milestone is this...while Suzy made a face at every bite of cereal when she first started eating, Hannah smiles and laughs at each bite but spits out a majority. Over the last couple of weeks, she now eats every bite of every serving! WoooHoooo! This week, she began eating cereal for breakfast and dinner, so next week she will start eating green beans for lunch! Can't wait to post the pictures of that!?! I wonder if she'll be smiling then?

Suzy & Hannah are napping now... but I can hear Suzy attempting the ABC song as she drifts off. It goes like this, "A-B-C-D (pause) E-I-E-I-O (pause, pause) M-U-Z"

Oh the joys of a daily day!!!! :)
