Is This Cheating?

I think this might be cheating.

That was all I was going to type because it's almost 10:30 at night and I just finished writing my extra words for today, trying to make up for yesterday. And then, at 10:26 p.m. Nater rolled over for the first time. From his tummy to his back. I wasn't really watching. He was doing some tummy time on his yellow, little chick blanket. He rolled half way onto his side with kind of a clunk. I heard Matt say, "Your big noggin is in the way. It's like a kickstand." I looked up in time to see Matt adjust the baby's head a little and over he went.

In celebration, Matt put Nate's little butt in his hands and raised him up and down a few times in imitation of the world's smallest demon drop ride. Nate loves that. He's still giggling.

A million tiny moments add up to a life. So many of mine are priceless in their own quiet way. Have I mentioned lately how lucky I am?

10:39 p.m. Goodnight.
I'm closing my comments for most of the month of November while I participate in National Novel Writing Month and National Blog Posting Month. I can't ask you to talk to me every freaking day for thirty days. That's cruel and usual punishment. My email is always open - anymommyoutthere@gmail.com.


E&E Tally: 10011 words (Did you know that the average romance novel has between 50,000 and 100,000 words. That's a lot of words.)
