Four years ago today, I posted, "I'm not sure I can handle The Office without Michael Scott..." That tells me that four years ago, being single, out of school, and working, much of my free time was spent watching TV, and thus the departure of a favorite character on a favorite TV show was worthy of a Facebook post.
Two years ago, it was a picture of Tim and I out riding the motorcycle (which at that time was still his crotch rocket.) We were newly married, newly non-pregnant...probably trying to get out and clear our minds a bit. We didn't have anyone at home we had to take care of (except a crazy cat, and she was relatively self-sufficient.) No dogs to get home and let out or feed, or babies we needed a babysitter for. Just the two of us...
One year ago, there was a slew of Henry pictures. Pictures of me snuggling Henry, Henry making funny faces, Henry and mama visiting Daddy at work, Henry napping in his MamaRoo, Henry at his two-week checkup... It's pretty obvious what life was all about one year ago - poor Sebastian didn't even make the list for one year ago today! We were a non-traditional family of five...mom, dad, baby boy, grumbly dog, and angel boy.
It will be interesting to see what Timehop has to say one year from today. Perhaps it will be a post of how nice the weather is, and how therapeutic it is to have the sun shining. Maybe it will be a silly story about one or all three of our crazy dogs. It could even be celebrating that I made it through the day, even though I was wearing my cranky pants. ;) I wish that it would be a post about trying to keep up with a one-year-old, or a picture of us playing in the backyard while Daddy grilled dinner. I wish I were counting down to a summer of hanging out with my baby boy. But I am thankful for the shining sun, the crazy dogs, and the sweet husband...even making it through a cranky-pants kind of day!
