Sunday mornings are usually my favorite. They are the least hectic morning of the week for me. I wake up early with the kiddo. There is no rush to get to work, or anything else. It is quiet, except for the kiddo, but I am thankful that I can take my time. I don't have to rush.
Kiddo is really into Calvin and Hobbes, by Bill Watterson. So was I as a kid, but if i could do it again, I wouldn't introduce it to him for another couple of years yet. My two year old's vocabulary now is littered with "chocolate frosted sugar bombs", and "I want to watch TV!". It makes me giggle.
I am nearing the end of this pregnancy (my last) and realizing i have no photos of my belly. I'm not a huge fan of pictures of myself, but I rather like this one that I took this morning, of me and the kiddo, who is about to be a big brother. Wow.
So after me and kiddo have breakfast and read for a little bit, Daddy gets up, and its time for the boys to go off to the coffee shop. And this is my favorite part of Sunday morning.......Me time!! This morning I made a cup of miso broth, which I have been quite addicted to this pregnancy. Its not coffee, but it has a similarly satisfying richness and depth. I enjoyed my miso while writing in my journal for a bit, and flipping through, for the thousandth time, my early birthday present from my Mom. Alabama Chanin Studio Sewing and Design, by Natalie Chanin. So inspiring!
Finally, on a related fashion note, I wanted to share a very special little documentary I recently came across on Facebook. It focuses on six women, with the average age of eighty, all doing amazing things, and refusing to stoop to the stereotype of aging. Fabulous Fashionistas is beautiful, inspiring, and profound, and fabulous for any age that actually wants to get inspired about the potential of aging! I have always adored old people for the depth of their wisdom and calm, their experience, and their stories. These women certainly raise the bar on style, intelligence, and get-up-and-go for any age!
This looks like fun!
