Progress

Little man is asleep now. I just went up to the gas station to buy cigarettes for my aunt and while I was there, I saw this tea that I used to drink. Peace Tea. I hadn't had any of it for so long because I drank it last summer, which quite frankly is a summer I'd rather forget. I only got one good thing from it, but the rest was just a mess! Anyhow, I saw these teas, and thought what the heck- I'll get one. I'm so glad I did! They're delicious and refreshing! They only take me back to that summer a little bit, but not to the bad parts. To the parts where I was sitting outside having some fun conversation, or going to the park watching the young men who were too lazy to get a decent job skate on their skate boards. That's one form of progress, I suppose.

This other part is better- Lucas is sitting up all on his own now! He can sit pretty well in a shopping cart, and he can sit on his play mat with pillows positioned behind him in case he decides he wants to look at the ceiling fan and falls back. I place a toy or two in front of him and just let him be while he plays and looks around, as if he's discovered a new planet. He's so precious. I had a mini photo shoot while he was sitting up because I was so proud! He is going to be a picture ham, if he's not already! I know he's going to be mobile pretty soon. He's the best thing that has ever happened to me, for so many reasons! I hope some day he knows what a blessing he is to me and what he has done to my life :)
