"a portrait of one, two, or all three of my children - once each week - in 2019"


Jaden: You and your brother are starting to carry on a family tradition - a past time that I shared with my dad when I was about your age. You have gotten hooked on Friends on Netflix, and now we watch one episode before you boys go to bed every single night. You love this show, and I love how it makes you laugh. Some of the content is a bit mature for your age, but I've watched how you boys handle it and react to it, and I've learned that you both are more mature than I give you credit for - and you already know more about the world than I thought you knew, too. ;) We're only on season two and we won't be able to get through all 10 seasons by the time it leaves Netflix on January 1st, but I have found full seasons on YouTube so - we're going to watch the whole dang thing! I love this 25 minutes we spend together, and I look forward to it every day.


Brandon: Our Disney vacation countdown chair has gotten very short! And you have now made another Christmas countdown chain that you keep in your bedroom. You're looking forward to so many things! We were watching the Disney World Christmas special together on Thanksgiving night, and you started getting sad. I asked you what was wrong, and you said you're already sad about how close our vacation is to being over. And we haven't even gone on it yet! That's the Disney effect. ;)


Kaitlyn: We had a good Thanksgiving break together, but one of my favorite hours was spent at the indoor park at the CF Rec Center. We walked into that gym filled with toddler and preschool fun, and your eyes got big and I could tell that you weren't even sure where to start! I had to drag you away from there to make sure that you could get lunch in before nap, and it made me already look forward to a new spring and summer and taking you to all the parks all the nights of the week. :)
