Today, Lily went to Yoga, and then Salt Lake for some returns she had to make. Unfortunately, I had taken the returns out of the car to make room for the sleds and winter clothes on Saturday, so Lily drove all the way to Salt Lake from Lehi to find that she couldn’t do what she hoped. Even more unfortunately is that she tripped and hurt both ankles on this disappearing sidewalk.
I seems to me so far not to be as bad as her previous fall, but I felt so bad for these two setbacks.
I worked from the Qualtrics office, taught Mary’s art class again (about Cubism, it was so fun!) and then brought Mary and Lydia home from school. I taught art and I planned a short day because Lily was still recovering from her sickness. It was fun to spend so much time with the family. While teaching art, Mary did not make a single comment. She may have been the only one! She was so shy, but I guess it is extra embarrassing to have your dad as the teacher. After class with Mary, we picked up Lydia. Mary immediately grabbed onto Lydia and attached to her side with a tight hug. She walked out of school with Lydia in that position, not letting go at all. It made me realize yet again just how attached Mary is to Lydia (literally) and how special that bond is.
At home, we had Amy and her children over for a playdate. There was playing, Kareoke, popovers, and a fun time that was had by all.
After the fun, Lily and I helped the children focus on their work. I helped Mary with her math, and Ammon did almost a full hour of school work as well. Lydia did her harp and Lily did music with the kids.
Also, Lily made the most incredible soup. Cabbage and Potato. Everyone ate it. It was delicious!
Here is Ammon and Clarissa dancing before bed time:
