Through our wonderful neighbor Tom&#8217;s coordination, my work peers and I were able to pack over 100 bags for children with food insecurity at the local Methodist Church. They even wrote about us in their church newsletter (see below). Lily was able to join at the end and she also joined us for lunch at The Yard House. It was all so fun!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Orthodontist: <\/strong>Today Mary went to the Orthodontist. Apparenty the Orthodontist was incredible, very engaged, and very skilled (the only Orthodontist that works directly with Invisaline). Lily said the whole experience was a bit like Disneyland, including a gift bag with a T-shirt and a giant Stanley Mug. Stanley mugs and Athleta leggings are apparently extremely popular for girls in middleschool at Raleigh. Lydia gave me that report which is why I even know what a Stanley is (although apparently &#8220;real&#8221; Stanleys have handles!) In short, Lily gushed to me about Mary&#8217;s Orthodontist. We feel very lucky!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"758\" height=\"1024\" src=\"http:\/\/abeandlily.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Screenshot-2024-03-04-at-6.05.41\u202fPM-758x1024.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-32194\" srcset=\"https:\/\/abeandlily.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Screenshot-2024-03-04-at-6.05.41\u202fPM-758x1024.png 758w, https:\/\/abeandlily.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Screenshot-2024-03-04-at-6.05.41\u202fPM-222x300.png 222w, https:\/\/abeandlily.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Screenshot-2024-03-04-at-6.05.41\u202fPM-768x1038.png 768w, https:\/\/abeandlily.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Screenshot-2024-03-04-at-6.05.41\u202fPM.png 996w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 758px) 100vw, 758px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Cuddling with Stilton:<\/strong> The kids are enamored with Stilton and are trying to make him feel at home and giving him a lot of love and attention:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"http:\/\/abeandlily.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Screenshot-2024-03-04-at-6.05.59\u202fPM-1024x768.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-32195\" srcset=\"https:\/\/abeandlily.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Screenshot-2024-03-04-at-6.05.59\u202fPM-1024x768.png 1024w, https:\/\/abeandlily.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Screenshot-2024-03-04-at-6.05.59\u202fPM-300x225.png 300w, https:\/\/abeandlily.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Screenshot-2024-03-04-at-6.05.59\u202fPM-768x576.png 768w, https:\/\/abeandlily.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Screenshot-2024-03-04-at-6.05.59\u202fPM-1536x1152.png 1536w, https:\/\/abeandlily.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Screenshot-2024-03-04-at-6.05.59\u202fPM.png 1794w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-youtube wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"IMG 0965\" width=\"660\" height=\"371\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/5pmAIafKqPw?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-youtube wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-embed-aspect-4-3 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"IMG 0966\" width=\"660\" height=\"371\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/XQSzj4Br55k?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>XM Day: Today was a day of service for Qualtrics, so I had the day off.
