Life with the Nicolls

Well - seems like we are trucking along just fine. Peter is a wild man running around with scrapes, bruises and a slight risk of serious injury every day. However - he is also the most loving engaging kid I know. Lily is gearing up for school - she seems happy and kind of excited. She is NOT excited that I am making her wear her glasses. I am NOT excited to battle the subject each day. Maeve is composed and happy as usual. Which is fabulous but I just remembered what a very difficult 2,3 year she was. She really was. Full of might and will and attitude. Now she is not that way at all. Sweet, happy, and mature. She is not bothered by the typical girl crap of "she is friends with her but not with me". Which I VERY much appreciate. She can tend to argue - but only b/c nothing is her fault and she just doesn't understand the problem!!! (ha - hope my sarcasm was clear enough there!) Both got the teachers they wanted.
So today I work, tomorrow I am taking Juncal to the city, Monday the girls have a birthday party to attend and then Tuesday at 8:00 a.m., I take Juncal to the airport. Wednesday the girls start school. I will take some time to describe the Juncal experience but just not right now. Suffice to say, next week will bring me peace on many levels.
And I think it's clear how much I enjoy PEACE.
Peace!
