Abe’s day off

Abe got Thursday off for Veteran’s Day, which was such a wonderful surprise for all of us. While Ammon and Clarissa were at dance in the morning, we took an almost two hour walk together in the canyon with Basil. I love walking and talking with Abe. It’s one of my favorite things.

Afterward we came home and Abe helped me clean the house in preparation for our Harry Potter party. We took a picture of Ammon’s room before taking down all of his pictures. Ammon stickered and colored all of these pictures, and he even taped them up on his walls himself. I loved that he just took the initiative to decorate his own walls.

After school Abe and the kids picked up my mom and brought her home, but she was not feeling well. She ended up staying in the car while I dropped Lydia off at ballroom and then drove my mom home.

When we got to her home, she still was not feeling well. I walked her in and helped her get settled in before driving back to pick up Lydia. I feel so sad that my mom is struggling so much. Mom, if I don’t say it enough, please know I love you so much. You are and have always been the Best Mom Ever.
