I just can’t resist the siren call of the DPP. Here’s to a blogging comeback in December!

Nearly every time Liv comes over to play she picks up Jason’s XBox controller and asks, “That fine I push the buttons?” Most days she is met with a blank screen and quickly tires of the “game.” However, a few weeks ago Rebecca and I were watching a video of our twenty-week ultrasound. Liv took her usual spot on the floor, and when she looked up from the XBox controller, her eyes widened as she saw “Gooper” on the screen and came to the perfectly logical conclusion that she was playing the Gooper Game.

Among the many things I have given up hope of ever getting used to in this life is how much everything is always changing—sometimes slowly, sometimes in an instant. Rather often it’s some very small detail that finally alerts me to the fact that something has shifted. Case in point: I am used to getting e-mails from Jason telling me about an exciting new movie trailer, dvd release, or helpful software, but yesterday he sent me a link to Fuzzibunz. I can’t actually say that I never, ever thought I’d see the day when my husband would send me a link for cloth diapers, but, still, it did strike me as a little surreal and reminded me that, yeah, things aren’t like they used to be.
