Sorry my dear family for the lapse in my posting. When I started this in December, I had the best intentions of posting every few days or at minimum once a week. Sooooo I am a little behind....ooops, life has been happening. The spring semester has gotten off to a busy start for the family. Rog has been super busy with ballgames especially out of town ones. At one point 10 days ago, he was only physically in our home 2 nights in 10 days. Thus Keith and I took the opportunity to finally celebrate Christmas with my parents. Unfortunately Keith did not get to see his cousins between them being very sick and the 10+ inches of snow that landed while visiting the fine state of Kansas. Keith had a phenomenal time with Grandpa and Grandma but especially doing chores with Grandpa. He truly loves being outdoors and loves those beautiful Angus cows my dad raises. He nows "farms" daily but setting up his barn and feeding his cows every morning.
The semester has also brought an opportunity for me to pick up another class to teach, which means Daddy gets two evenings to spend with little boy without mommy's presence. It's good for the both of them! Also, a friend of the family has a little girl that I will be watching four days a month. Miss Leighton is 7 months younger than Keith so it will be good for him to be the big boy. I know how scary lack of daycare options can be so I am thankful I can help a friend out.
Keith is ever so much fun. We have started lessons that teach him his letters and numbers. He loves the idea of school but always says "only if mommy is teaching". We are not anxious to send him off to preschool as some of our other friends are with their children. I feel that we have so little time with him at this age, I am trying to absorb as much of his energy and innocence as possible.
As I am writing he is demanding my attention so I am off to be Mom, my favorite job.
