Birthday Party

Andrew will be turning 11 in 3 days. Time goes too fast. We are having his Birthday party today and invited some boys over. We were going to do outside games; like water balloon toss, three legged race, etc, but it is going to rain this afternoon. So, due to mother nature, we need to come up with a plan B. Normally, I'd have a plan B already in the works, but the indexing has pulled me away from all of that, including our daily routine.
I've had to let the boys do their own thing this week in order to complete to 2,000 images. It has been a little chaotic and Mom has not been very patient. We did go to the public library on Thursday to a special childrens program about the moose on Isle Royale. The Ranger even read a few story books, it was a treat. And yesterday we took a walk to Andrew's speech therapy and back (40 minutes of walking total).
On Sunday, Andrew will be spending the week with Missy and Gordon. He is looking forward to it; a little reprieve from his stressed out Mom and clingly little brother. Plus, he'll be going to a day art camp, which he will enjoy. I'll miss him; well, we will all miss him, but know that he will have a good time. And since he will be gone during his Birthday, I just want to say....

Happy 11th Birthday, Andrew!
