It's pretty funny to think that this picture was taken in July and now Jonah and Caroline can't wear those outfits anymore because they've both grown way too much.

I have put off doing this post for several days now (I'm using the term "days" very loosely now, anyway) because I couldn't really think of someone to write to.  Who has really hurt me recently?  I could only think of one person.


Dear Chara,
Get it under control, girl!  Just because your life is hectic doesn't mean that you have to make me miserable.  Yes- you seem to be in a hurry all the time, but it's not really necessary.  Slow down!  Stop sweat ing the fact that your house is a wreck and disorganized.  It's okay.  I feel like you need to step back from life for a while.  Spend more time playing on the floor with your kids and less time trying to make everything in your world 'just so.'  So you missed a few blog posts?  Who cares?  So your NaNoWriMo word count is way low?  Who cares?  You're okay.


Me.

Again (so sad) I do not have one.  Actually I should have one, but I don't.  We went to a Halloween shin-dig at our friend's house this past saturday and good times were had by all.  I did not dress up, and in retrospect I'm kind of glad I don't have any pictures because I was kinda frumpy looking.  


Oh well.
