Last year I started participating in events around town that would have never interested me before--you know, things that involve bouncy houses and screaming, over-tired children. It took me that first year with Jasmine to realize how fundamentally different my life was going to be from that point on.
Now, I look forward to these events, for the obvious reason that nothing brings me more joy than to see my sweet girl having a good time and to see her embracing things that she wasn't able to do last year.
The Obstacle Course.



The Party was the climax of an unusually action-packed day for us. Jasmine had a speech assessment in Sacramento in the morning followed by a swim lesson in the afternoon. We were on the go from 8:00 in the morning until 8:30 at night. I even had to wake Jasmine up from her carseat nap for her swim lesson:
Mama: Sweetheart, it's time for your swim lesson.
Jasmine: Right now?!
Mama: Yes, believe it or not, right now in the middle of your nap.
I would call that a scheduling faux pas of the highest order.
