Today was Saturday, so as usual
Daddy was up bright and early and off to work (lately Daddy has been up and
early every day because his back has been so painfulL) and back home again after 10
a.m. to check on Mommy and Bodhi and Buddha. You each had just finished
breakfast, and the two of you eagerly agreed that Daddy should take you on a
“carriage ride” to the Farmer’s Market.
So off to the Farmer’s Market we
went and upon arrival we of course had to have a sourdough cookie, and we
purchased some Amish brown eggs to take home with us. We also bought an herbal
iced tea with lots of honey in it to bring home as a treat for Mommy, and of
course we couldn’t go by the kettle caramel corn without buying some of that
for Mommy too :). The
kettle corn man was so nice he gave us an extra bag so we could enjoy some
ourselves while on our carriage ride :).
As usual, several people commented how beautiful the two of you are, and one
nice woman asked if you were twins :).
By the time we got home, Mommy
was finishing her shower and ready to make the two of you lunch and then take
the two of you out back to play and visit with Baby Kitty (her name :). Our very nice
neighbor Susan came over and visited you guys while you were out back, she was
recently especially kind in giving Mommy some ground-cover plants for Mommy’s
outdoor home improvement project. Daddy drove the truck over to our other house
and picked up some lumber and a backyard arch-seat and Mommy’s giant clock off
the kitchen wall. Daddy got to visit a little while with MooMoo who encouraged
Daddy to have back surgery if it is called for, rather than go on living in
pain.
MooMoo also gave Daddy her cordless power drill for Mommy to use. Don’t tell
Mommy but Daddy intends to talk to the two of you about getting Mommy her own
cordless power drill for Mother’s Day but that is our secret :). Mommy has told all of
us, she would really like to get tools for any special gift holidays so she can
more successfully work on her crafts and home improvement projects. Mommy is a
character, like the two of you.
By the time Daddy got home, the
two of you were ready to go down for your naps, after which Mommy and Daddy
played huggy-bear and kissey-face :) and then both of us began work on some of our projects; Mommy is preparing some
things so that she will be ready when our electrician friend Tom Brown comes
over on Monday to put a ceiling light in Mommy’s craft room, while Daddy busied
himself finishing some end-of-semester business and begin preparations for plans
to fix a couple electrical light fixtures tomorrow.
Brother Sean Franky and Sister
Kelly and Brother Aaron came by and visited for a while, but they had plans so
we couldn’t talk them into joining us as we went to Martino’s Italian
restaurant for their 50th anniversary celebration where there was
pizza-by-the-slice for fifty cents and cokes for fifty cents…yum, yum, yum! By
the time we returned home, Mommy needed to go into work for a while so the
three of us took our second carriage ride to Foster Park where there was a free
concert and outdoor movie. We stayed a short while to listen to some music,
treated ourselves to a root-beer that we shared, then we headed home to await
Mommy’s return and bath-time for two dirty little babies :).
After your baths, Mommy made us
all drinks (milk for babies) and popcorn so we had a brief family popcorn party
(you pronounce it pop “coin” Bodhi :)
and we all enjoyed the blessing of loving one another and settling in for the
night in our beautiful home. We are so blessed, and the two of you are doubly
blessed to have a Mommy and Daddy who understand the importance of teaching the
two of you to value and celebrate your blessings! Next week, Daddy is thinking
of doing a triple-carriage-ride Saturday :),
sleep tight you baby angels!!!! :)
