I am now 32 years old and walked through my graudaiton ceremony for my master's program. Still have 5 weeks of internship and a big paper to do but we're close to being done and it feels good.
Cassidy was a perfect angel at graduation. What 10 month old gets through 2.5 hours of college faculty pattin ghtemselves on the back and a long list of names being read without incident? She slept in my father's arms and basically smiled and laughed the rest of the time.
She is saying "dada, mama, baba, yay, uh-oh" and now..."thank you." She knows her name and the words for lots of things (though she can't yet say them) like ball, Henry, gentle. She also responds to "no" and "sit on your bum."
I have been having a lot of responsibilities converge at once - grad school is wrapping up with a flurry of assignments, work is extremely busy right now and it seems like every birthday I care about is about to slap me in the face. I am having a hard time keeping up, as evidenced by my lack of posting. This is the first time I've felt truly overwhelmed by stuff other than mommyhood in a long time. Cassidy is just a joy - how did we incorporate her into our lives such that she is not the only thing going on? I guess we're getting used to the parenting gig.
