First and most important news-Scott’s Grandfather passed away on March 25th. He would have turned 92 on April 21st! He is missed by many including his wife Virginia, daughter Chris (Scott’s mom), son-Steve, 5 grandchildren & 4 great grandchildren. We miss you and love you Gramps! Adios!
We celebrated Easter 1 week early while my sister and family were here visiting from Chicago. It was a crazy busy visit like usual and Lisa & Ron moved into a new apartment/condo 3 days after returning to Chicago from California!
Scott’s company was bought by another homebuilder a few weeks ago, no change in job status for Scott as of yet-but anticipate knowing more by the end of June.
Then last week, Scott was diagnosed with pneumonia (Yipee!) and actually took sick days off from work (for himself) for the first time in 9 years! (He took some off last year during Nolan’s surgery at Stanford!).
The rest of us having been battling nasty colds and poor Nolan is cutting a bunch of teeth on top of it. We are on the downhill slope of the colds and feeling much better and hoping this spring/summer we will be germ free in our household.
Leah continues to enjoy playing with her princesses and loves books (thank goodness). She enjoys for me to read ANYTHING to her and during our “sick” time spent it reading and watching episodes of Little House on the Prairie. Her last night of Awanas was Tuesday and she told me on the drive home “I can’t wait to see Heaven because there is a big castle in Heaven and there is no darkness…just light!”
Nolan loves his big sister and he too enjoys books (for awhile) and playing outside. He tries to communicate very well and mimics words-though only a few people can understand all his words. Early this morning when he called out for Daddy-I went to his bed and he was sitting up looking at the floor. “Daddy?” he called out. I told him Daddy had already left for work and tried to get him to lay back down to go to sleep. He lifted up his pillow and peaked underneath and said “Daddy?” I guess he thought Scott was under his pillow hiding? LOL
Those are the moments I truly enjoy being a mom!
Bless everyone. Happy Spring!
