December Daily in January

This is the fourth year that I have participated in this project and the fourth year that I haven't finished "on time".  And although I haven't continued to post my pages, I have completed two out of the four years.  I guess I figure everyone else is already done with the project and has moved on to new things and isn't interested in reading about December.  However, this year I am posting more progress because I have been making some great progress.  I am much further along than I think I have ever been at this time in the year!  I'm happy about that!

Day 8

This was the day that we got stuck on the highway driving home.  On a normal day, the drive takes us two and a half hours.  So, by the time we got stuck we had already been in the car for an hour and a half and adding another hour or so sitting still was not ideal with two young children.  When we finally made the decision to spend the night in the hotel, the girls were ready to burn off some energy.  The beginning of our stay was a little rocky with some issues with sharing, rough play, and just generally being a bit wild.  When the girls decided to calm down and "write", I was very pleased...I called it the calm AFTER the storm.
