That is especially amazing since she was feeling so unwell. \u00a0While Lily was at cooking school, the following transpired.<\/p>\n<p>I picked up mail from my mom&#8217;s office (Lydia asleep in the car) and then drove home (Lydia still asleep in the car). \u00a0Lydia woke up as we pulled in the driveway and proceded to be an emotional disaster for the next two hours. \u00a0I do not fault her. \u00a0She took a late nap, and she was just out of sync. \u00a0She melted down over a variety of topics such as curry being too spicy (Mary ate it), being tired, being cold (right after her bath), not wanting to comb her hair, wanting the ipad, wanting to sit in my lap&#8230;&#8230;you get the idea. \u00a0Finally at the end of the day, right before going to bed, she cheered up, partially because she enjoyed watching Mary run around only half-way in her pajamas. \u00a0I only got half-way putting Mary into pajamas before I had to intervene with another dramatic emotional episode from Lydia. \u00a0Everything ended on a good note when I put the kids to bed.<\/p>\n<p>Right afterwords, my brother, David, came over. \u00a0He is in-town from his PHD studies at Harvard. \u00a0We chatted for a while and then played one hour and thirty minutes of Wayne Gretzky Hockey on Nintendo 64. \u00a0We had so much fun that we made plans to do it again Monday.<\/p>\n<p>Pictures!<\/p>\n<figure
