Flashback to Last Year:

On nearly this day last year we were:

* Trying out Jodie's sling after meeting her in person for the first time.
* hibernating in the Mason attic, much like we are doing this year

* getting acquainted both with our amazing son, and with the vastness of Being Parents.
* settling into routines we still use today


This time last year.... seems like yesterday. At the same time as seeming like a century ago.

Isn't time strange? And wonderful? And bittersweet? And the ultimate blessing?

You speak so well to that yesterday/forever ago world that we live in as parents. Such a strange paradox.
