My daily narration

Little of my daily life goes by without commentary from my almost 2yr old.  The bathroom is especially her favorite place to give the blow-by-blow of what's going on.

Me: Josie, I have to go potty, I will be right back. (as I pull down pants and sit on toilet) 
Toddler: (runs into bathroom) Mommy go potty!  ooooOO.....haaaair (as she points to my crotch).
Me: (complete my pee)
Toddler: (hands shaking in the air frantically) ALL DONE! Mommy wipe JINA!  See Josie JINA?! Mommy jina, mommy jina, MOMMY JINA!!!! Josie pick up?? shut potty....wash hans....ALL DONE!
Me: Thank you, sweety.

What happened?!

All of a sudden it's summer.  I still have my basket of winter hats sitting by the front door and I don't know where the screens are for the windows.  When did this happen?!  Not to mention that Jace moved out (and doing awesome) and I am the newest member of city council.  More on that new adventure later.  It feels hectic all of a sudden.  My garden needs to be planted, spring cleaning is WAY overdue, I need to buy more sunscreen, and we are headed to Chicago to visit Felder's in less than 2 weeks. aaaghh!  Father Time, please slow down!  Fortunately, I got a good dose of beach time in April, which always makes me happy, since it will be a long time until my toes touch warm water again.  Josie was pretty thrilled, too.
