Thankful (and slack)- November 28, 2011

Oh. Right. National Blog Posting Month. I was supposed to post everyday. Well, when the blog Gods named November the month they must have forgotten about Thanksgiving. You know. The weekend where you go into caloric and family overload, become sleep deprived from Black Friday, and spend the night at your grandparents where a WiFi signal is about a strong as your dessert-resisting willpower.

So I fell off the wagon. Sorry. When I wasn’t working over the holiday I was having a really great time. I figure fun is a good reason not to post.

I want to take a little flashback. Thanksgiving 2010…

Thanksgiving 2011….

I can’t stop looking at these two pictures and comparing them with all their similarities and differences. Sometimes I think here’s no way this is the same person. I look at the first picture and I can smell and feel my sweet little newborn. I can still hear all her little coos and grunts. I look at the second picture and I can smell and feel my funny, squirmy little one year old. I can hear all her squeals and giggles.

Then I realize it has to be the same person, because I feel the exact same way when I look both pictures. That’s my baby. And I’m so thankful for her.

Happy (belated) Thanksgiving readers!
