Events of the day

This morning Emily got her new glasses. She put them on and everything was clear! Her vision is now 20/200. It was 20/60 with her old glasses. Later the kids and I elicited help from the neighbor with bikes. Karen has a little bike with training wheels that she can sort of ride. Eric's training wheels were all bent and broken, so they were removed. Eric now rides without training wheels and is happy for the freedom. Emily and Caitlyn have their bikes all fixed so that they can ride too. The neighbor also removed our metal pole where the mailbox used to be. Emily had her dance dress rehearsal. Benjamin can now say "momma", "no", "yes", cacker" (cracker), and tries to imitate many other words.

I have the pictures from the play to share:






Here's Caitlyn's flower crown that she picked the flowers for and I made. Then it went bad an hour later. The flowers were on their way to death in the garden anyway.
