Happy 12th birthday, Karla!
It’s been a rainy afternoon and evening, but I hope Karla’s had a fun time at her birthday party. Rowen and I weren’t on the guest list, and despite Rowen’s recent close call; I’m sure she was as glad as I was not to be going to the boy-girl party. In her case, I’ll guess that at least a small part of the reason for that is because she doesn’t want to be around to witness anything that might push her across the line again.
Our afternoon and evening would probably rate as boring by comparison to the rest of our classmates, but I was quite happy to go home and work on my homework and the family business until dinnertime while Rowen was working at the computer store. Game night at the Inn was quieter than usual for Rowen and me because we were the only two kids in our class playing tonight. It’s not like we ever have even half of the kids in our class at the Inn on Thursdays; but it was different having nobody else there. I don’t know if having Dad away in the city next week made a difference, but he and Mom won the senior championship this week; and Miranda was already talking about partnering up with Mom next week to get in on a chance for a possible repeat win. Considering their record; I’d say their chances are pretty good.
When we got home, Ethan and Ehlana were popped into the tub so they’d be squeaky clean for their first Friday morning visit to KidZone. Mom and I took care of that while Dad started on his homework in the office. We all did the bedtime snack and story together; I helped get the twins into their beds; and have been working on my computer since getting changed and into bed with Mandy. I skipped the archive studies, and have only done about an hour of work on my languages, but we’ve got a few busy days ahead, and I’m going to get a little extra sleep tonight, so...
...say ‘goodnight, Cassie’.
“Goodnight, Cassie.”
