It had been my goal to post at the end of the day after the kids were in bed, but that time just isn't going to work. Especially if a glass of wine has been incorporated, after putting 5859023 kids to bed (or two, which can seem like more), I am just too sleepy to write anything.
Hence my May vacation.
We're still here. No one has COVID as far as I know. We all still like each other most of the time.
In small events, the baby chicks moved to their temporary home in the apple orchard. They will live their for about 2-3 more weeks and then will join the martyrs of the French Revolution and two of Henry VIII's wives. For now, they eat, drink, and are merry.
Marian continues to grow and has finally grown into this delightful onesie that my dear friend, Nell, made for Milo back in Klamath. We all still talk about Rodeo's Pizza - the best pizza in Oregon. It's a restaurant that our friends started and we miss it. So, Marian and I matched and tried to convince them to open an Indiana location.
Also, Mother's Day is approaching! I wanted the kids to make thoughtful cards for their grandmothers. Marian did NOT keep the paint on the page. Milo only wanted to paint in black. Marian cried. I had to apologize to Milo for snapping at him. All in all, a very successful crafting experience. Grandmothers - you better $*^@ing appreciate your cards this year.
But, the kids are doing well, reminding us of joyful moments and funny things. Milo dresses up in various costumes and loves to practice rhyming. Marian is running all over the place and her vocabulary includes such useful additions as boots, shoes, stick, up, and teeth.
This quarantine is tough, but also brings so much good stuff for us. We're lucky.
Love to you all.
