Saturday Opening Ceremonies

Friday (4/8)

Happy Birthday Luke!


This picture is not current, but it is better than the one I took.

Thursday

We were at Robbie's batting practice.  I only had Jonah to watch.  He could not leave with any strangers without walking past me.  He was playing with kids I knew were good and well mannered.  SOOO, I don't pay much attention to what was going on and start talking to other moms.  Big Mistake!

Jonah and his friends started a pick up baseball game with a real bat.  This little boy was behind Jonah when he swung his bat.  NOT GOOD!!



When something like this happens, there are already NO WORDS that can express how you feel.  There are no words to say to the parents or the child.  It is a bad situation.

HOWEVER 

My lack of words and total shock of the situation was heightened because three years previously, William (2 at the time) was at the ball fields while Robbie was playing, and threw a baseball and hit this little boy's grandmother in the face! 

Yes, I am telling you that two of my children have injured two people from the SAME FAMILY!!  Caused them serious pain!

Fortunately, their family is very understanding.  The grandmother did tease me later saying that we had it out for their family.

Wednesday

Made lunch for CBS and shared my secret to perfect alfredo sauce:

Tuesday

My phone rang at 4:22 AM!  I, of course, answered, thinking it was an emergency.  I figured it was my sister-in-law.  It was a male's voice.  I, in my sleeping stupor, think it is my brother and that I have overslept and should be out the door taking the kids to school.  Turns out it was a total stranger.  He just wanted to know what I was doing?!?  What do you think I am doing?  You obviously have the wrong number!!  But I have your number now buddy! 

Monday

Robbie went to the ortho to get his new retainer.  It was defective.  Now he has braces on his front four teeth.

Sunday

 This is the bucket that hangs on our front door.

This is the bird's nest inside the bucket that hangs on our front door.  Complete with baby birds inside.

Wasps in the mailbox, birds in the door bucket.
