Recent days have been a lot about kids routines and hobbies. I realize each day more and more how little time we have and how short is childhood, but there is a second chance - a childhood experienced through your own children. But that miracle won't work unless you are really really patient. Patient to understand how it feels to be a little person.
How does it feel to want to hold your bottle for several weeks and finally succeed?
To sit down and see the world from sitting position?
To dance in front of the audience?
To visit a toy exhibition?
To get a big chocolate cookie as a surprise?
I like to watch them so excited from minor things. And it is interesting to see a disappointment from a very minor thing. Because a minor thing can be very very important for a little person and what is worst - grown-up may not understand that. Because little person's logic works totally different from grown-up's. Security is the key to little person's happiness. Security spiced by positive surprises. Does the same go for a definition of happiness for a big person? Maybe it is also about security?..ONLY?
The tiring topic of home is still present here and we are a bit losing our hope. I would like to have a home. Rental, small, under construction, free only after x months - does not matter. But the knowledge that there is a place for you...We do not have such and the May is approaching. Laura will turn 5 on 30.05.2012. She would like to have a birthday party with balloons and Hello Kitty cake. And she made a wish for a birthday gift - a beach set: bikini, hat, sunnies and a bag of course! I hope she will have that perfect day in a new home that we all love. I keep fingers crossed. Tired but I do...
Лаура просто красотка на балете!

You are right: they do grow up so fast. Like little Leo already sitting! Best of luck with your house hunting, must be very tiring indeed.
