Hallelujah for weekends. This weekend, Rudy decided to go to a friends birthday party in Iowa City so I am enjoying the night alone. I love that sometimes. I love laying on the couch, headset on, listening to my favorite tunes as loud as I want (with headphones on) while vaughn sleeps soundly in bed, lights down, relaxing, lighting candles, doing a facial, laundry, cooking, just enjoying the quiet for my mind to rest and think. Every woman needs nights like this.
Valentines day annoys me. Girls today at work were talking about hoping they got engaged on Sunday and I just wanted to gag....its like.....how cliche. Just dumb.
In my opinion if you cant treat me special all year long, why would you do it on one national day? Dumb. Stupid.
We are not doing much this year. Next weekend we are headed up to Minneapolis and will call that our Vday present to each other. The game for him, Shopping for me. What more could you ask for?
I have been missing Iowa City alot lately. Just have an itch to get back there....I always have but it gets stronger by the day. I think I left my heart there. I just adore that city. Its amazing. I would go back in a heartbeat....but wouldnt want to take V far from her gma and gpa and cousins. Iowa City.....a breathe of fresh air. Love that place.
I am having so much fun with Vaughn lately- she's growing up so fast and has such a fun personality. She's so lovey....and sneaky....and defiant....and precious...and smart. She knows more songs that I do, word for word, she tells stories and knows how to make them up (like fairy tales) and she takes characters from movies and makes her own plot, she is now obsessed with taking baths and has so much fun in there. She has learned nursery rhymes. the newest that i love is "jack and jill went up to hell to catch a pail of winter, jack fell down and broke his crayon and hell came tumpling laughter. " She's just so very precious and I just cry when i look at her and see her in a light only a mother can see.....her perfection and her heart and her true joy. She brings a peace and love and joy and contentness to my life that i have never known. She is my hero.
