Three Years. An Interview.

I know I said it when I posted a photo of my sleeping baby toddler kid this morning but I will say it again. How is it possible that this little piece of perfection is 3 years old today. It boggles my mind.

I’ll deal, I’m sure.

Last year I did a 2-year interview. I decided to make it an annual thing. She was not super cooperative this morning, but you get the jest. Sorry about the length. If you watch the whole thing I will reward you.

I promise.

And so, Rylee’s 3 year interview…

Did you make it through the whole thing?

Promise?

Ok, here’s your reward…

Rylee all ready to go to school this morning! 
And, that may be a piece of chocolate in her hand. What? It’s her birthday...

Future Rockstar?

Ry got this guitar from Uncle Willie for Christmas almost a year and a half ago. She’s been jamming on it ever since but I’ve never been able to catch it on video.

Uncle Willie…this one’s for you…

Free Hula-Hoop Lessons

I grabbed a few hula-hoops at the dollar store last year before Ry’s birthday party. Last weekend, she saw one of them in the garage and asked me to get it out for her. So of course I grabbed the camera…

P.S. Can I just say how awesome I think it is that my kid is so nonchalant about hearing a gun shot? Love it.

Namaste

Rylee has recently become obsessed with Yoga…or “Oga” as she likes to call it.

My daughter is clearly nothing short of a future yoga master.

I suppose yoga means different things to different people. For me, yoga is a time to be peaceful and mindful of my body. Rylee and I like to do oga together a few times a week. It helps us clear our minds…errr…calm down…and Clearly, that’s what’s happening in this video…despite the Cheap Trick playing in the background, the washing machine going off balance and the crazy cat-cow action.
That’s real life people.
If you’re not familiar with the art of yoga, you may be confused with what Rylee is saying at the end of the video. Namaste is said at the end of all of my yoga classes. Literally translated it means “I bow to you”. It is a form of respect and it “allows two individuals to come together energetically to a place of connection and timelessness, free from the bonds of ego-connection. If it is done with deep feeling in the heart and with the mind surrendered, a deep union of spirits can blossom.” {source}
So, Namaste, Friends…
Namaste.
