For Marty
This posting is for Marty. I called to verify his plans for the weekend, and he complained that I hadn’t updated my journal in a while. This, my friend, is for you.
Things have been rolling along pretty smoothly. Audrey, Alex and I took the weekend and drove to Oklahoma to help my parents pack and sort. They have decided to sell their house and move into something smaller. With Mom and Dad growing older, it’s not as easy to take care of the house and yard. Fortunately, they have a lot of equity in their home, so that will leave them with a nice nest egg.
While we were visiting, Alex finally rolled over. He has been arching his back quite a bit, and he finally turned himself onto his belly. When he did, he sat still for a second trying to figure out what he had done, then he continued rolling and rolled onto his back. Audrey, Mom, Dad and I made a big presentation which left Alex looking as though, “what did I do?” With Alex being in Daycare, it made me appreciate that we were able to witness it first hand.
Easter is upon us. Marty and Vanessa will be coming up this weekend to spend the weekend with us. I know Alex will enjoy their company as will Audrey and I.
I hope all is well with you.
