1. The word "confessions" makes me think of kind of lame pop songs.
2. I only got two pictures of one of my kids in their holiday outfit. I'm kinda bummed about that, but that's the way the ball bounces, sometimes. (There's no way I can spell that in German)
3. I've gotten a very mild form of pica twice now, once when I was pregnant with Maya, and now while I'm pregnant with Whosis. It's more specifically called xylophagia, and it makes me salivate when I walk down the paper towel aisle. It's under control, don't worry, I've only eaten paper or paper towels a couple of times. Last time I think it was because I was somewhat iron deficient, so I'm guessing that's probably the reason this time. I'll find out when I go to the doctor next week since I just had a lab done a couple of weeks ago.
4. I got a drawing pencil kit from my sister Adrien a couple of Christmases ago and I still haven't opened it. I got a Prismacolor colored pencil set from my parents who knows how many years ago and while I've opened that to admire the pencils, I still haven't used any. I think I was waiting for genius to strike but I really have no excuse. I just need to practice and get back in to drawing again. Jared gave me fabric pens and oil pastels this year, and I have plans for fixing up our desk area and to leave my (and the kids') art tools out so it will be easier to just sit down and do something. Waiting for the desk to be "ready"isn't really an excuse either. I feel guilty and nostalgic when I look at these beautiful things that loved ones have given me and I really just think I need to enjoy using them, even though I'm not going to create anything amazing.
5. I'm not going to post about Christmas probably until 2013. This is partly because all the pictures were taken on three different devices and I need to sync everything. Sorry about that!
