T's Reading Log IV

We enjoyed these books recently. They are quite interactive. T enjoyed unfolding the pages to see the development of the stories as we read on.

T's Weaning Food Lunch Box:
boiled apple,
mashed pumpkin, veggie and wonton,
pasta chicken broccoli gratin
I found myself good at creating new obsession in an already packed daily schedule. My new preoccupation is keeping a record of the time we arrive at the nursery... The up side about this is that I will be more punctual if I am more obsessed.

T's weaning food lunch box today:
seaweed rice sandwich,
boiled veggies and homemade baby wonton,
boiled apple and strawberries.
Have managed another day without delay at the nursery! 
I am feeling much better after today's early start and conscientious puncture despite that I went to bed at 2 am and woke up again at 4 am to console tearful T and started the day from 6:30 am. 

Being on time has become a smallest bliss that I wish to have every day, as it is the least sigh of a mother in control of herself.

About setting a good example

T has grown up a lot, and it's been a lot of fun to interact with him. He enjoys doing "give and take" (どうぞ、ありがとう) very much;

New Year's Resolution (?)

Being constantly reminded of the desire to scream, I have been meaning to write. The blog has been abandoned for almost an entire year, just like my garden after last spring. The garden still gets my attention and my sparse efforts now and then, but the blog doesn't. Perhaps the mental need to tidy up an invisible room in the mind can go easily hidden and neglected than the expulsion to weed a visible space like the architectural extension of the house.

I will have been a mother for a year next week.
