2009 Resolutions

I have resolved to try to post in "real time" for 2009. Already, it's January 6th and I'm struggling to meet the commitment. Why? Well, I have about 150 pictures of my adorable children on my 'new' (that I don't know how to really work yet) camara that I would love to blog about, but the task of downloading them all and making them legible, etc., seems daunting when my free time amounts to occassional 5 minute intervals through out the day.

So anyway, in an effort to blog real time - a few random notes from today.

Jack is a smart smart boy. This morning, while watching TV with me in bed while I tried to sneak a few more minutes of sleep, he asked, "Mom, is Diego a kid?" unsuspecting, I said,
"yes"
"I'm a kid" Jack says.
"yes you are" I say wondering where this is going..... here it comes...
"BUT Diego has a computer and I don't"

this is how his 3 year old logic works. If someone else is 3, or a kid like him, he should be able to have all of the things that this other person (real or not) has. It's difficult to argue with. To save time this morning (still trying to sleep) I replied,

Yes, but Diego is a little bit bigger than you. He's at least 6 or 7.

End of conversation for now. I'll have to be a bit more careful with my answers in the future.

Happy New Year to everyone! In addition to my resolution to blog real time, I am also going to attempt blogging backwards... so many fun photo's and memories to record from our FANTASTIC holiday season.

stay tuned.
