a January day

::I found this draft in my posts and am not sure why it never published::

What a beautiful January day it is. I love looking out the windows, at the swirly blue and white sky and the soft circle of sunshine moving throughout the day. It happens quickly, in fact. Owen and I wait for the morning light, and before we know it, it’s time to wave bye-bye to the sun!

I have started to reflect a little on how different my days have become, from teaching special education in public school.  My little boy is my alarm clock, breakfast is always in pajamas, and I plan just for one day at a time.  I’m so grateful for this time to spend at home with Owen.  And, because our family does not plan too far into the future, this could change within the next year.  Living on baby time has taught me to recognize and appreciate small, precious moments, though.  So I know that whenever we’re together, it’s a special time.
