September 1st

This has been a busy week, and it's not over yet.

Lillian is still thriving, today she received the Best Listener award in music class.  Jack and Wes and I are getting use to being without her, much quieter.  We are finding our rhythm to the day.  Wes seems to be at his best when he's allowed to roam thru the house finding whatever pleases him.  It doesn't necessarily end well for me but it keeps him happy.  I just found a pile of cheerios on the floor that he spilled.  And after lamenting over the mess and asking him to pick them up, I saw him go and pick up the dust pan and broom.  He often  plays in his room quietly.  Yes it's true, just not for very long.

Jack loves to annoy him.  Yesterday he decided it would be fun to sit on Wes' head while they were playing on the trampoline.  It didn't take long before they were sweaty, red, and dirty and needed a cool down in the tub.  Oh wait, that was this morning not yesterday.
I wish we could get away to the lake for Labor day.  Maybe we will.
