An Apology

I am sorry my dear blog friends. I have neglected you so. I do love you. I do.

That said, my absence is probably going to continue. Why? Because I am one busy girl.

I am teaching three classes this semester. All three are different subjects. Which means three different lesson plans two time a week. I might just loose my mind... one can only hope I can keep it together... I am sure I can. (that is glass half full if you were wondering...)

Madeline is well. She is enjoying a break from my constant camera in her face. I miss it, but I will get back some day soon. I am planning a monster post some day in the future with a major update on Madeline's accomplishments. (Like today when I asked her what color the block in her hand was she said, "ong" correctly identifying the block as orange. She is a freaking genius!) I feel I have neglected her progress most and isn't this blog suppose to be all about Madeline?

And my bathroom? Let's just say that my earlier post about how simple projects turn into major ordeals could not be more true. The new floor is really looking good and I think Kev and his dad have the toilet on and not leaking now. (three wax rings later... it's a good thing they are cheep.) Madeline is spending the night with Grandma and is blissfully unaware of the craziness that is continuing here at home. **I just got word that the toilet is working!!! YEAH!!!**

So photos to come. Some day. Soon I hope. First, I am off to work on lesson plans and to write an exam.

You forgot to mention that she is able to identify the oval shape. And she can say the word oval. There is nothing cuter than a curly headed baby girl who says "oval".

A nice post on her burgeoning vocal skills is in order, I think. Perhaps a little movie of her saying oval....?

NO PRESSURE FROM MOLLY HERE! NOW BESIDES DOING SCHOOL WORK, REMODELING A BATHROOM, CARING FOR YOUR BABY, DOING HOUSE WORK, GROCERY SHOPPING, COOKING AND BLOGGING, YOU NOW HAVE TO TAKE MOVIES OF YOUR TALKING DAUGHTER, WHO WILL PROBABLY NOT TALK ON COMMAND AND WILL CAUSE YOU TO SPEND COUNTLESS HOURS TRYING TO GET A GOOD VOCAL SHOT. YEAH, YOU GOT NOTHING BETTER TO DO!

(BUT IF YOU DO IT, I'M SURE I'LL ENJOY IT JUST AS MUCH AS MOLLY!)
