A fulfilling day

Today Lily spent a lot of time with her mom in the morning. She had an awesome time and was so happy to see that her mom seems to be doing so much better on her new medication plan. When she got home, she talked to our friend, Nick, for almost two hours. Nick is going through an extremely difficult time, and I was so touched Lily took so much time to talk with him. I chimed in a few times (when I wasn’t working) and I noticed that by the end of the call, he was feeling much, much better.

After work, I worked on homework with Ammon. We are still super behind, which is such a strange and semi-frustrating concept to me given he is in kindergarten, but I we are trying to keep up with all the demands of his tiger-teacher and tiger-school. His handwriting is getting really good, as is his reading, so we are definitely happy with the progress. I’m proud of him for how hard he is working!

While I did homework with Ammon, Lily learned knitting with our friend Christian. Christian is amazing at knitting (he knitted the sweater he is wearing). It was also fun to watch him wind a ball of yarn with his yarn-winding device.

I took this picture because I was amused at what an expert job Basil did at disemboweling this stuffed animal.

I took these pictures because I’m also amused at Mary’s obsession with pigs.
