After breakfast, the kids played together while I cleaned the master bedroom and bathroom. Then we took our morning walk on the beach again. Walking hand in hand with Tyler as we talk about his future... sharing memories from past visits and how much both kids have changed. Its these simple memories that I’ll always cherish.
After our walk, we headed inside to work on school. We missed quite a few days last week during construction so I hope we can make up some of those lessons. The kids did great. We did Science, History and Bible before lunch and event worked in a phone conference with Tyler’s therapist. Then we watched the next episode of Little House on the Prairie while eating lunch. Then decided to take a break from school and watched a movie together.
I spent a little time on the balcony enjoying the view and working on some puzzles. Then it was back inside to finish Writing, Grammar and Math. We also took the time to move Sammy over to the North bedroom so she and Tyler could each have their own bathroom.
Then a quick stop at Best Buy and then Target before heading home. It finally quit raining so we changed into our suits and ran down to enjoy just a few moments in the hottub.
When we got back, the kids each took a shower and headed to bed to watch some TV. I took advantage of the time to sit on the balcony with Coco and drink a cup of chai.
Then it was back inside to clean up the kitchen, pick up all the stuff and piles that accumulate as we do life, and then headed into my room to work on the computer.
As I worked, Coco acted like she needed to go out. Instead of taking the time to sit outside while she did her business, I cracked the slider door open so she could get out. After a little while I saw her jump up on the window sill from outside and look in at me. Awe. When I was finished and ready to go to bed, I looked everywhere and couldn’t find her. I walked out on the balcony and found her on the cushion chairs right outside my window, all curled up and enjoying the salty breeze... she really loves it here!
