A Two-Carriage Ride Saturday



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!!!! :)

Sucker with a sucker :)

Three suckers!

Double suckers!
