This time next year
Lately, if I am doing something special, I find myself looking forward to the next time I do it more so than being happy for the present time. For example, I really like the Fourth of July. I like watching fireworks, and being with a crowd of people who are happy celebrating our country's independence. It's rare to see people break out into a fight during a fireworks show. Usually if you look around you will see people staring up the sky and smiling, and you see children's faces filled with awe. So although I am definitely excited that today is the Fourth of July, I find myself looking more forward to next Fourth of July, because I think to myself (and sometimes aloud to Steven) "Next Fourth of July, we'll have Baby S with us."

As you will see, the baby may or may not react to the sight of fireworks. Alyssa didn't really react to them last year. This year we know there will be a reaction to them... what kind? We'll find out in a few hours. We can see the city's fireworks display in from our 3rd floor balcony. Either way, the first July 4th w/ her was special, as I know next July 4th will be special for you too.
