Little Pumpkin

Ever since I was a little girl I have loved the fall. The season for me represents a new beginning, a fresh start, and very exciting possibilities. The school year always provided a chance to hang out with old friends you haven't seen much over the summer and a reason to get what else...school supplies! I got to pick out a new school bag, folders, and trapper keeper each year. I never forgot my planner either! Yes...I have had a planner since the 4th grade. One time a found a stack of them and it was hilarious what I wrote down for my daily grind, "Math: (Y)" which means "Yes, you have math homework" proceeded by "Ballet at 5:30 p.m."

One of the main reasons fall is off the charts for me is what else...the holidays. Each month has something fun to look forward to! September was a fun birthday, followed by deciding what to be for Halloween, then yummy turkey and dressing. Fa la la la la...the Holidays were right around the corner!

Now I have a whole new reason to love fall...my sweet little pumpkin! Izzy was born in August which is going to make the fall have a great beginning with back to school birthday parties, followed by ghost, goblins, and pumpkin patches. Not to mention yummy hot chocolate and pumpkin custard dates.

Each day I continue to look forward to the next! I know Izzy will love this year's Halloween being a flower, her first time to gather round the Thanksgiving table, and will love listening to Christmas carols and lighting Advent candles. Boy I love my little pumpkin!
