Day 423: Recital

Day 423: Recital

Thursday morning, I had some things to print out. Henry was all the way on the other end of the house, but he has a Pavlovian response to the sound of the printer and rushed over as soon as it started up.For quite a while, Henry has been really into bringing us...

Day 422: A Wednesday

Day 422: A Wednesday

At one point I had intentions of opining about one thing or another in today's post, but honestly it's been a pretty busy day and I don't have all that many words in me. So instead, I'll just say a few quick things about our Wednesday.Wednesday is a bit more of a free...

Day 421: Again With This?

Day 421: Again With This?

It's May in the greater Denver metro area, and if living out here for 6 years has taught me anything, it's to not be surprised when you wake up to snow in the middle of May. I say "when" and not "if," because it really is some kind of metaphysical certainty. So...

Day 420: See the Birds

Day 420: See the Birds

It was a dreary Monday, cold and rainy. Henry had a good day with his ABA therapist, and was looking forward to getting back to preschool. I wondered whether we'd be able to walk to school, but the rain let up for a while and Henry and I were able to take a little...

Day 419: Mother’s Day Tea

Day 419: Mother’s Day Tea

Sunday was Mother's Day, and the kids and I were excited to celebrate the amazing mother in our midst. The kids made cards, and Amelia even made a really impressive book. It is an ABCs of why Mom is awesome and she did a great job assembling it.  I whipped up a...

Day 418: Achy Breaky Saturday

Day 418: Achy Breaky Saturday

Saturday, I was pretty down for the count. Not unusual, following the second vaccine dose, I know. By no means was I super sick or anything. I know people who had the full-on fever and chills and the whole shebang for about 24 hours. Me, I just woke up kind of achy...

Day 417: Pfinal Pfizer

Day 417: Pfinal Pfizer

It was a busy Friday morning for all of us. Amelia had school and some assessments, Henry had ABA and OT, and Erin spent the morning helping out some friends of ours who needed some babysitting assistance. I was pretty tied up with work, and had a lot to get done...

Day 416: Life Is What Happens

Day 416: Life Is What Happens

Another quick post! I'm recognizing a pattern where late in the week I end up getting tired and/or lazy and going for brief posts. I'm not sure what is more sad, that actual pattern, or the fact that it took me over 400 days to recognize it.Anyway, Thursday was a...

Day 415: Morning Math

Day 415: Morning Math

Quick post tonight, because as often is the coincidental situation with short posts, I'm a little tired and there wasn't just a whole lot about yesterday to talk about. It was a Wednesday in the kind of week where most every day felt like it should be Thursday....

Day 414: Drummed Up

Day 414: Drummed Up

Tuesdays typically are the longest days of the week for Henry. He starts his ABA therapy at 8:30 and wraps up at 11:30, just in time to have a quick lunch and head to preschool. He gets done there at 3pm, and after I walk him back home, he has a couple minutes to grab...
