Happy Birthday, Mom!

I did not realize it had been ten days since I last posted an entry. The days just go by so fast! It was quite busy last weekend with Kathleen & John here to help Matthew move into his dorm at UT. Kathleen just seems to bring a little bit of chaos with her everywhere she goes. Was she like that before she had twins?

This week has just shot by. I’m getting accustomed to Jonathan being at a new gymnastics program, at a different location, for FIVE hours on Mondays and Wednesdays. He loves it and I don’t know what to do with myself for that long a period of time. Slowly I’ll learn to make better use of the time—last Monday I just kind of knocked around the house for a while. I must drink less coffee too.

Today we had Jessica and little Eamon over for a while. I finally got Eamon to go to sleep in the sling by standing underneath the main air conditioning vent—the white noise just sent him off. Then we went & slept on the big bed for close to an hour. He is such a beautiful boy with a big smile. It’s humbling to have him sleep on me—not only because he trusts me enough to do it but because his parents trust me enough to let me do it.

And the day started off very nicely today with Jonathan singing “Happy Birthday” to his Gram over the telephone. Happy Birthday, Mom!

That's right! It is your Mom's birthday.....Happy Birthday, Cynthia!!! I was bored the other night surfing the Internet. I don't remember where I stubbled across it (your Grandfather's diary), but I read it. It was there that I realized your Mom's birthday was coming up from the entry your Grandfather posted on Aug. 29th.
