Happy Thanksgiving!!

I realised something about the video I posted last week. At the end, when he keeps saying no, he said "Um..... kitty!" and then we asked him for a doggy noise, and he says "no"... and then proceeds to meow at us. lol! Smart boy. I certainly didn't catch it in the moment. In fact, it took me two or three times watching the video to catch that he said that.

Lately I have simplified my life to where some who know me are kind of not sure what to think... got rid of animals that I loved, moved from a city I adored, got rid of a garden that I pride myself in... but I have needed to simplify. Let other people do the work that I have done for the last few years. Pull in, and strive to not have so much to do... so I am free to move just a bit slower, listen just a bit better, and react just a bit calmer. That is my goal for this move. So far, this move has been crazy. Not awful (although there are many things going on I could do without) just crazy. But in all that, I can already see it is a good change. Just in the way my children play.

I am wishing for a quiet holiday season.

Happy Thanksgiving all!
