April 2017

Chloe had a sleepover at Eleanor's house and they stayed up til the early morning hours.
She fell asleep on the couch VERY easily that afternoon but made sure nobody would take her balloon.  Silly girl.

Amelia and I crashed.  Well...Amelia crashed into the cement paver I was swinging around out of the back of the truck.  I was handing the kids one paver at a time and while I had my back turned Amelia decided she wanted to jump into the back of the truck with me.  My momentum was already swinging the paver around and smacked her right in the head as she was jumping.  She was so calm and never even cried!  I gasped, Royce saw the gaping slit in her forehead, and he just squeezed her head shut while I jumped down.  She just kept asking, "What?  Is my head broken?  Guys, did I break my head?"  Sweet girl!  No, your head was far from broken and now it looks a little more like your momma's forehead.  I had a forehead injury or two in my childhood days.  Now we both have the scars to prove them.  The clinic glued her shut and the scar is healing nicely. 

While she was at the clinic Caroline and Isaac drew a picture for her!
Oh my goodness -- proud momma and Amelia felt SO special and loved.   

We even planted her in the garden later that afternoon!


But how good does this garden look now?  We rebuilt the retaining border and used old screen doors for the fence panels.  Such a fun creation. 

Chloe's 4th grade class took a field trip to the Cosmosphere and I was able to go along. 
They built rockets and launched them at the State Fair Grounds.
It was a fantastic day! 


And EASTER!
