New, New , New, New

New year, new toys, new time, new life? Newness is great, newness has to happen .. 2010 is proof that time MOVES on. But is it all good? Wouldn't it be great if you coudl pinpoint a time when everything is perfect and you just want to say STOP and live in that moment?

Christmas Day 2009 was one of those moments. We all kept our 'scraggly' clothes on and lay in the middle of a paper/toy/box strewn room with goofy smiles on our faces as we gave thanks and shared love in a very family moment. It was nice.

Today on the other hand we are all getting on each others nerves and wishing for a house ten times as big so we don't have to fight over that 'spot' on the couch or Adam and Carys don't walk by each other with that accidental trip/push/pull/face/smirk/it's mine attitude they get when they want to cause mischeif.

I like to live in the past maybe a little too much! On to the Present....

Carys, the big girl has started her proper dance class. She is in her element all in PINK. She loves dance class so much she talks about it all week, she makes up songs about it, she pretends she's in it.. and when we arrive. She sits with her head down and chews her fingernails, thats it! No feet wiggling, hand fluttering, sweeping or stepping with the other little girls in pink....our little girl is in a world of her own. We walk outside and then she starts to fluttter, wiggle, sweep and step. She maybe a closet dancing queen after all.

Adam is back onthe tennis bandwagon. his first ever tournemant match was supposed to be on the second of Jan but it was cancelled due to bad weather. So we will sign him up for one in February.
