It’s been a wild first week of May; and not just because of the weather today, which went from beautiful to stormy to sunny and warm again just between morning Tai Chi and lunchtime.
The news highlights for the week include Stephanie’s seventeenth, and Sophia Bassett’s first birthdays yesterday; and Uncle Adam and Aunt Leanne’s first anniversary, which is tomorrow, but we celebrated with them tonight because they have other plans for tomorrow. Ethan, Ehlana, and I are good with not knowing the details...seriously!
Stephanie, Jake, Dillon, and some of their friends all went to Crystal Springs yesterday to meet up with Violet and celebrate her birthday with some shopping, dinner, and a movie; but we did get her birthday present to her in the morning before they left. Sophia’s party was family only, but Ethan and Ehlana went to see her with Mom and they’d picked out a gift for her too. Dad and I spent most of the day on yard work; mostly so we would have more time to spend with Mom on the Mother’s Day weekend.
The extra work around the house, along with my usual family business work and studying didn’t leave much time to play with Rowen, but we did play after school on Thursday, and after lunch today for a while. I’ve got more of the same planned for next week, but that’s partly because Grandma and Grandpa expect to be home by Thursday or Friday. Dad and Aunt Leanne think they’ll be home earlier than usual because they miss their grandkids. I’m okay with that, because I miss them a lot too.
After going to the buffet tonight, Uncle Adam and Aunt Leanne came home with us, and stayed until after Ethan and Ehlana went to bed. I’ve been multi-tasking since then; combining my usual nightly computing with quality time with my Jacuzzi and then cuddle time with Mandy. I’ve pretty much covered the highlights for the past few days, and this is my last job of the night, so...
