So I have been feeling very guilty about not updating the blog more often. I just haven't felt like it. But I am happy to report that after feeling guilty about how much milk Parker drinks when I won't drink any, I drank a very small glass of milk last night. And I have committed to drinking one every day. Maybe one day I will add a little more to my glass or maybe I won't. At least I am drinking milk and not feeling as guilty.
When I know things are going to change in my life I am very good at painting this beautiful picture in my mind about how perfect things will be when we get where we are going or whatever the case may be. Of course things are never the way I imagined. I don't know what makes things harder my self-inflicted disappointment or the actual situation. All I will say is this move to Durham has not gone like I would have wanted, but life goes on. On a good note, I am learning to love reading again. It's kind of nice.
More importantly, Parker cracks me up these days. He is learning so much. He loves cars. All day long I hear, "car...car...car". He is talking a lot. He says car, ball, choo-choo (train), duck, treat, bath, and list grows almost everyday. He loves playing outside so I try to take him to a lot of parks. I would post a picture or a funny video, but I haven't loaded them on the computer yet. Sorry! You'll just have to wait.
Take care!
Kari

Sorry things have been so frustrating lately. Just count yourself lucky you aren't in school. ;) Love ya!
Hey Kari - so sorry to hear your move to Durham hasn't been what you expected. I know how you feel, although I wasn't really expecting much from Texas :-) Sadly, even without expecting much, Tx still managed to disappoint both me and Scott... But then again, we're talking about Tx, so no surprise here, right? :-) But the good news is that nothing is ever permanent and life does move on.. Changes will come your way, Daniel will be out of school and maybe someday you'll have the life that you have envisioned. Glad that Parker is there to keep you smiling. He is such a cute boy!!
Sorry that you are going through a frustrating time. We've had our share of crappy moves, but usually it turns around. Hang in there!!! I love your photos - as usual! Pop on over to my blog, finally finisher blogging about our trip to Australia.....last June!
Thanks for the comments everybody! I will post pictures soon.
I meant to comment on your last blog post, I loved the pictures. What is it about being a mom and feeling guilty? I feel guilty about the silliest things and I don't know why. I'm sorry your move was rough, changes are so hard. We would love to get together when you come to D.C., let me know what your plans are when you come. There are tons of great (FREE) things for kids too!
