i have a friend who loves me and jenny is her name! hi jenny! today was a trying day... certainly not the worst, just difficult, and i was feeling AGGRESSIVE to top it all off. yet, right now as i sit here on my deck with a beautiful evening breeze blowing, i feel like everything is going to be okay. it always is.
today was ralph's first day of school at border star. ralph, although the most easygoing of our children, is being used as a weapon/pawn against us by his principal. stupid lady! she'll get hers! so we are looking into st. elizabeth's after all. i really hope i can work it out to have ralph at st. e's this year and, subsequently, have one more year with him home with me once or twice a week. i have missed those days and longed for those days.
i made up with my mother-in-law. hi sue! it was a hard phone call to make simply because i had no idea what i was up against. but there ended up being nothing but love. thanks for that!
my husband came home after toiling away, worried and upset. about ralph, about his mom, about the financial state we're in (we've been in worse!) and about our ever changing, seemingly more and more full schedule.
the kids, thankfully, are unaffected. they came home talking about homework, making up pat-a-cake games, and 'tickets' to eachother's rooms. a ticket consists of 1/3 of an 8x10 piece of paper with a giant letter on it (c=cecelia, l=lionel, r=ralph.) now cecelia is hopping in the tub with ralph to teach him more pat-a-cake games. lionel is calling, so gotta go...
