A New Day!

Let's start the day off with a PayPal donation link:


This Morning
I got up early to scrub the floors. Ew! Need to do that a little more often. Failed to make breakfast in time for everyone to run off to church.

I was throw off balance a little when it was announced that Amy was going to church. A part of me thought "great! We can get the eggs hidden and do some other things without Amy underfoot" Another part of me thought "hey? Shouldn't I be there for her first time in church?" It was very helpful. Tommy was too wacky to go and was refusing to get dressed for church despite his grandfather's pleas. So Tommy stayed home and played on the computer downstairs while Cathy and I hid eggs. I enjoy that sooo much!

Upon returning from church, Amy was given a brief headstart to understand the egg hunt game. Took her no time whatsoever to figure out what to do. Shortly she was cackling and having a great time with Granny holding her basket. The kids did a wonderful job finding all but 4 eggs without much help. The 6 prior to that had some hints but the final four became a game of "red hot."

Lunch was very fulfilling thanks to the grandparents and Honey Baked Ham. Afterwards the kids played and the adults napped.

Last Night
Tommy and I joined a friend of his (also Aspie), that friend's sister, that friend's dad, that friend's dad's friend for dinner and a movie. Pleasant evening!
