Three little but important things

Thing the first.  I love that Jonathan always makes apple cider at this time of year.  The house smells so good, and seeing the crockpot on the counter always makes me smile, it reminds me of my childhood when Gwen would do the same.  Yay for cider!

Thing the second.  Connor saw the chiropractor today and she worked on his jaw and neck.  Between the two specialists he's nursing better already.  Hooray for not beating me up anymore!

Thing the third.  Discovery Channel's How the Universe Works is the coolest series ever.  I love astronomy, and the rest of the family does too.  I write this while Ari and Connor nap and Xander is curled up in the cat bed holding Blackie the snake.  Our five year-old can talk all about black holes and quasars.  Yay for science!  (And as an aside... did you know that there are more stars in the universe than grains of sand on earth?  I'd had no idea.)

  1. 1. So pleased that cider brings back such sweet memories for you and that Jonathan is helping create those for your sons.

    2. There could not be better news than hearing that Connor is nursing better. Does this mean he's sleeping longer periods of time too? I hope so....for him and for you.

    3. Quasars. Hmmmm, okay. Quasars. You got me. I give up. Xander will have to explain it to me!

    Love you all,
    Mom
