In somewhat more cheerful news....
Jan. 21st, 2008 02:26 pmWhen I put Evangeline to nap, as I was leaving to deal with Angelique's nap (seriously, I'm surprised she napped at all, I figured she'd end up with quiet time), I got a good look out the window.
It's been a year or more since we got that window, and I'm still surprised, looking out, how close we are to the water!
I always kinda knew - we are on an island, after all - but I didn't really understand it until I could see it.
But we've got a wonderful view of the bridge from the third floor, and we can even see a bit of the water and some ships before the leaves grow in on the trees. Our house is up on a hill a bit, that's why we can see more than just the house opposite.
Every time I see that view, I smile. It's just so... so... close! And I never knew, either.
