- I had a lovely Mother's Day
- We welcomed college girl home! yay!
- We celebrated a special anniversary
- baseball games
- Isaac went to his prom (pictures galore!!)
- soccer games
- we put a deck on the back of the house
- more baseball
In addition, we are trying to wrap up the school year, prepare financial aid forms for TWO college students next year (assuming Isaac finally finishes up his school work!), and prepare Sammy for his First Holy Communion on June 6, which includes getting the basement organized, so there is a place for kids to play at his after-party.
We have also had a little guy come into our life! A friend, who is unfortunately experiencing a crisis situation in her life, called in need of a baby-sitter for her 21 month old son. This little guy is a peach! He is so good and my kids are enjoying having him around very much. It is fun to watch Miss Annie with him. She is the baby of our family and there have been no other little ones around for her to interact with. It's strange to think that she hasn't had any contact with babies, since it seems we've always had babies, but it appears she is our last...the baby boat seems to have sailed on to other shores....sigh...So, having little Johnny in the house has been a treat. He is the type of baby (I only had one of these) who, when you lay him down for a nap....just. falls. asleep! He's a dream! Even my big teenage boy likes to play with him.
Last, but certainly not least, we have two big pieces of news:
- College girl arrived home on May 5, and promptly GOT ENGAGED five days later!
- Big changes are in store for us for next year. That's all I will say here. I will have a fairly lengthy post about this soon...very soon.
In the meantime, would you please offer up a prayer for Sarah and Andrew, and again, for the Savage family?
Be back soon.
