Perfect Day

Today was a perfect day. After the busy week of holiday excitement, visitors, parties, food and STUFF, today was a day of calm. Nathan joined us for some mid-morning napping, we had a nice breakfast together and then went to explore a new activity. Friends had been telling me about the Life and Science Museum in Durham so we decided to go and explore. It was so much fun. Nathan of course can't do too much to participate but I think he still had fun observing his new surroundings. I like to watch him look around. He actually likes to watch people more than anything - even if there is movement and lights. He's always got his eye on people. And he is always moving to the music as well. He's my tiny dancer.

The museum will be so much fun to return to when Nathan is bigger. So many things to learn and play with! Even the outside has a great park, a section of animals, a train, and a butterfly house among other things. The weather was cold today and will be for the next week or so but it was nice and clear. And in the sun it didn't seem too bad. Next time we will get to enjoy the outdoor part a bit more I hope.

Tomorrow is Sunday. Aahhhhhh . . . I'm so glad to have another day of just us. Days like today are what I have always wanted. How lucky am I to not only have what I want, but want what I have!
