"45 minutes all to myself..."

Such a great line from White Christmas. Danny Kaye says that to the Haynes Sisters when they asked "What's in it for you?"

Today I didn't quite get 45 minutes -- but maybe 30... And it wasn't all to myself -- but I'll take what I can get!

Colin, Caroline and I discovered a park in our neighborhood (a short five minute walk) that the kids love! Today we walked over around 10:30 and I was actually able to sit on a bench while they played! I have NEVER been able to do that. I've either played with Cecelia (when she was an only child) or had to take care of a little one (Caroline or Colin). Now with Cecelia in school and Colin just under two (and pretty fearless when it comes to playgrounds) -- Caroline and Colin love to play together at the park. They can climb up the steps and slide down the slides without any assistance from me! I can finally just sit (by myself) and watch them! Ah! What a concept!

Guess where we are headed tomorrow morning? :)
