New Year's Eve. I don't believe it. Where did the year go?
In our house New Year's Eve is a huge deal because it also my Emma's birthday. She turns FIVE today, which just seems so impossible. I can still so easily picture they way we had her nursery arranged. I can still remember her smell as I nursed her and rocked her for hours on end in the comfy yellow chair, see the shadows cast across her peaceful face by the soothing glow of her low light lamp. I can feel her soft curls and sweet breath on my neck as I hold her and tell her stories and sing along to Coldplay.
And now my baby girl thinks she is all grown up. She can't wait to go to Kindergarten. She loves to sing and dance to Hannah Montana/Miley Cyrus. She has a very keen sense of fashion and loves to shop, though this is not something new for her. She watches Cyberchase instead of Sesame Street. She wanted, and received, an iPod for Christmas instead of toys. But she still loves to snuggle with me, and for that I am eternally grateful.

Not Very Creative
So I just realized I have not really posted anything creative lately. It is not like I have not been working, I think I am just drowning in projects right now and don't have time to write about them! I have, however, made time to goof off and read.
I may have mentioned in a previous blog that we read Twilight for our book club. Well, I actually read all four books in a week. I was so surprised at how much I enjoyed them! Eve and I saw the movie and LOVED it. I really think the casting is impeccable and Kristen Stewart and Rob Pattinson have great chemistry. He is so dreamy! ;) Yes, we have all reverted to 15 year old girls!
Eve and I decided to drag the husbands to see it too, so we all went to the Warren theatre, which was really fun. They have a balcony section where you can order dinner or drinks, the seats (which have seat warmers!) are super cozy. Good times.
So, having seen it twice, the book club/craft night girls and I saw it together tonight. (The boys saw The Punisher.) Eve said that even though she has seen it before it is like watching it for the first time each time she sees it. I think that she is on to something there. I NEVER go see a movie more than once in the theatre, so this is absurd and fun. My husband just rolls his eyes. I am pretty sure he thinks we need a Twilight 12 step program!
Anyway, if you are in the mood for a very romantic and sweet movie, I recommend Twilight. Go with the girls, or take your Edward with you. Either way I think you will enjoy it. And I think you will be surprised at how many people are smitten by this beautiful love story. And check out the soundtrack, too. It's awesome!
