and they're out

Wedding invitations, coming to a mailbox near you. Well, if you know my brother.  It's been a busy week.

Goodbye uncle Steefe, and aunti Teen

Henry has had a great week with his uncle and soon to be aunt! We had an early birthday celebration for H. He loves his new, vintage record player. It was sweet to see Henry's connection to them. H had had a melt down, mommy only moment right before they came over. I was overjoyed when Henry started calling for "Steefe!" after he stepped out side. And it wasn't just because it got him to stop hanging on me, but, it did add to the joy. Of course the little buger wouldn't say "Teen" until 2 minutes after they walked out the door.

Banjo will miss them too!

Come back soon!

Sad song says so much

My brother was playing a slow song on the piano today. Henry announced the song was sad and actually started to get upset. Who knew music would effect him so deeply. Thankfully, Kristine was there to let him play happy songs.

I spent the morning at Panera working on their wedding invitation and overhearing a gaggle of women talking about their kids. Listening to these women makes me love my friends, and fellow teachers more. One woman was talking about her child's poor grades. She then deducted that only certain subjects were important, so she was only going to push her daughter towards those subjects. These are elementary school kids. Jeez, I'm glad she's not one of my parents. After that I got a much needed massage with my mom and Kristine. Then got approval on the wedding invitations. Hooray!
