June — It’s What’s Going On
It’s been almost a month since I’ve written anything here, so perhaps a bit redundant to say I don’t have much to say. However, repetition is about all I’ve got going. No new insights or awakenings. The daily routine is the routine.
Jack turned 4 on June 9, with a bit of fanfare. We had a very nice party for him at the hotel pool in Denver. Much thanks to all that made that event. Then followed up with an equally nice dinner in Glenwood Springs with family and almost family, where he and another boy put on a display of how 4-year old boys play (not to be confused with the video of 4-year old boys playing in Denver).
We returned home from Colorado to monsoon and home breakdown season. Four trips to the hardware store have mostly made the garage door functional again. A $220 pending repair resulted in a new dishwasher purchase. The lake in our basement and the lack of sink in my bathroom remain stuck in the middle of the projects lists. Oh well, maybe by the time I buy our next dishwasher.
This is the first ‘real’ week of summer vacation for us. By us, I mean the kids I guess. Although going to work at roughly 8:00 every day without worrying about who’s dressed or brush teeth besides myself seems a bit like a vacation. 10:30 bedtime last night will not become the norm, I hope. A few day camps and such scattered in, but mostly just the kids at the house is the plan (and Jack in preschool some).
Jack had an impromptu fishing trip on Friday… pic of him + fish coming soon. He’s also becoming more of a swimmer with each trip to the pool. Expect full on swimming by end of the summer, I’d think. Adelaide is on the verge of losing tooth #2 and is now a master bike rider.
