We’re all happy that Xander is back home with us.  He had a great time at my parents house though.  It was good for him and for us to have the time apart.  I loved hearing my mom and dad tell the stories of the things that happened while he was there.  I look forward [...]

While Xander has been away with my parents, Kate and I have had a wondeful time with Mira.  We’ve colored and put together puzzles and watched movies and played.  She’s seemed to enjoyed being the sole focus of attention for a change.  It’s been nice to not have to divide my attention for a little [...]

More mail from my mom, Cars The email i sent before was written about 1 o’clock but email wasn’t working and i believe it was 6 before it was sent. Update: The movie was very good and both boys very very good. There were only 2 other people at the movie. ( We got real [...]

More mail from my mom today. We’ve got Xander…and Trin We met Cheryl at WalMart and got Trin to keep a few days too. Boy, are the two of them having a great time. It seems good to have children running and laughing in this house. They got an inflatable sword from McDonald from the [...]

Xander just left the house with my Mom and Dad.  He’s going to be spending some time there with them this week.  They’ve been wanting to do it for a while, but things never quite worked out right.  We made a serious effort to get it done this summer, and he’s currently on the road [...]

This was yesterday also on the way home from the kids My Gym class last night. Mira says, “Mommy, we have candy at home.” Mommy says, “Yes, Mira, we do.” “I want some of it.” I nearly ran off the road laughing.

So we were talking with Xander about his upcoming trip to stay with Nannie and Jpa by himself. We were asking him if he was going to call us every night and tell us what he’d done that day. He said, “No, but I’ll call Mira and talk to her everynight.” “You aren’t going to [...]

And so we come to the end of a wondeful 4 day weekend. Saturday, we went out to pick up the pottery Mira had painted last week while Xander was at a birthday party. That turned into a whole outing as we just kind of explored the area around there some. Sunday and Monday mornings [...]
