Hi!

So...did I say 365 posts? Perhaps I meant 65! I haven't taken a minute to sit down and write since my last post. The days have gotten busier for sure. I started watching a baby on Mondays and Wednesdays, soon to be Fridays also and I'd forgotten how all consuming it is to watch a baby. I don't bother picking up a pen on the days that he's here for certainty that I will be interrupted. I am enjoying watching him very much.

I also decided to go back to my client on Tuesdays and Thursdays after one week of being gone. I spoke with her to see how it had gone with the new caregiver and unfortunately it hadn't gone very well. I felt compelled to offer to come back for the summer and she was thrilled with the offer. I hope by then a suitable replacement can be found. That sounded a little bit like I'm tooting my own horn didn't it? I don't mean to. I know that I do have alot of patience and in order to be a compassionate caregiver, patience is a must.

I'm not certain if I've shared with you that my husband and I are going to be grandparents...TWICE! My oldest son's wife is due in December and my middle son's girlfriend is due in October. There's alot I could share about both pregnancies but out of respect for my children I'm just going to say we're THRILLED at the prospect of having two new little lives coming into the family and I'm thankful to have my mom watching over them.

It's a beautiful morning and I think I'm going to go for a walk now but I just wanted to let you know I haven't fallen off the face of the earth!

xo,
Carrie
