Day 45: A letter to yourself a year ago

Dear Haley (Sept. 2009),

You’re probably reading this while feeding Adeline in the middle of the night.  Don’t worry, she’ll sleep through the night soon.  Take advantage of the 4 naps she takes during the day, because a year from now, she’ll be fighting you to just take one nap a day.  Also, if she falls asleep in your arms or while cuddling, cherish that moment, because she won’t do it for very much longer.  Before you know it she will be so squirmy and curious about everything that cuddling will be completely out of the question.  I know you think she’s cute now, but just wait!  She gets cuter and cuter everyday and she is learning so much, you wouldn’t believe it!  Oh, and don’t be nervous about Rob getting into a good residency program because everything works out great!  You will love living near the beach ;)  Have tons of fun with all your friends now, because a year from now you will miss them a lot.  And one last bit of advice:  Put the house on the market in January or February.  Don’t wait until March because that will be too late!  And don’t waste your time trying to sell it by owner, just go with a realtor from the start and you might have better luck.
