I've had a rough couple of weeks. It probably wouldn't be a good idea to go into the details but I've been struggling with feeling extremely hurt and angry. Nobody likes to feel like that and I've been using this blog to write angry blog posts in the middle of the night, posting them and removing them in the morning. Crazy? A little bit, but it helped. The weather here has coincided with my mood and it has been gloomy, dark and rainy.
Yesterday the sun came out and I had a fantastic day that I was appreciative of. I am always reminded to keep things in perspective. Sometimes not every piece of my life is the way I want it but I really have a lot to be thankful for. My day included playing with Samantha in the sunshine, a massage, Scrabble with Dave on the back porch, a run, a bike ride to yoga class and then dinner with good friends.
As I was walking out of my hot yoga class the instructor said "Wow, you look all blissed out!". She was right. My mother in law got me the best bike for my birthday and I hopped on and rang my cute bell all the way home. Life is good.
Mexican Alphabet
As I mentioned, Samantha loves Mexican food just as much as the rest of us. She eats spicy salsa and has now started to request "rice and beans". This video is from our latest Thursday night girls night at El Rey, a small little neighborhood restaurant. She pointed out the letters to me on the chair and I got the camera out. I thought her obsession with letters and the alphabet in general was fairly normal for her age but I have been told this is not true from her speech therapist. I guess it is more of a 3 year old milestone. This shows that she can identify letters outside of her alphabet book. Pretty darn cute if I do say so myself.
