April 7, 2014

~Barry, after we were back home and settling in to watch T.V. "Another successful Second Sunday Supper."

~He said "Morgan was proud of her cooking. She had a right to be."

~Willo was scared when she got here, but she came to me so we could go get her card with the duck. She's learned I keep little surprises for her in my office. She seemed pretty happy after that.

~She wanted to play with Daniel's toy. It was on the table, and he was sort of leaned over, hugging it. I told her he seemed to be holding on to that pretty tightly. He said, "She can play with it." He was going to let her put on it on the floor, but she said, "I'll sit by you, Daniel."

~Willo, puckering up for a kiss, when I protested that I couldn't go with her to my office  because I miss the good-bye kisses from the kids who were gathering up to leave.

~I'm always the one looking for kisses, so when I heard Andrew say, as Annette was about to shut their front door on our way to the estate sale, "want to say Hi to Mom," it made me feel good.

~Beth and I had a good time Saturday morning. I sailed into Saturday without a lot of leftover Wonderland on my mind, so much less stress. We played tennis, and then we had lunch.

~Annette went with us to the monthly estate sale, and we had a good time looking at things together. I had decided before I went that hanging out with her was more important to me than my usual self-focused walk through.

~Kids at the table, laughing and talking before supper.

~Played in the bonsai garden with Barry.

~Brittany, carving the roast, putting the vegetables in the bowl, "I'll do this. You can go and visit."
