30 Days of Thanks: The Return of Dear Friends

Remember sweet Mr. T who broke our heart when he moved to Brazil with his mama and papa?  Well… he’s back!

Today, Nora and I were incredibly thankful to get to see some of our dearest friends, not though a computer screen but real, live, and in-person, because they have moved back to Nantucket!!!  Nora and Mr. T (who is now bigger than Nora, talking up a storm, and writing “T”s on the chalkboard — I feel like such a proud aunt) got right back to playing together as if they hadn’t ever been apart.

 It was so sweet and wonderful to watch her instantly reconnect with him and I’m thrilled to get to see Nora and Mr. T grow up together (because I’m never letting them leave again, you know).  Prom plans are already in the works!  🙂

Perhaps even more than being thankful for Mr. T’s return, I am thankful to have his mama, my friend Logan, back.  Just through me babysitting Mr. T, during drop-offs, pick-up and lunch hours, I saw Logan nearly every day of the week — then, on weekends we usually got together of a walk or afternoon play date.  When she left, there was a big hole and I can’t wait for us, too, to pick up right back up where we left off…except this time, she is ahead of me:

Yes, Mr. T now has an incredibly adorable little brother (another Mr. T), so when Peach is born Logan will be an invaluable resource as I navigate parenting two.

And, in the meantime, Nora is going to get lots of practice at being a big sister. I couldn’t be happier today!

Z was Raja in an Aladdin production through her dance studio @pasgeorgetown this evening and she did such a great job. I loved watching her. She took a year off dance and is getting back into it and you'd barely know she took any time off, plus she had a big smile on her face the whole time - I could tell she was having a ton of fun. ♥️

What happens when you go on a long weekend trip with only your husband, no kids, and no agenda? 

Lots of walking, cocktails in the middle of the day, singing at a piano bar, and time to write a blog post for the first time in nearly two years. Which I did! 

😮 For real. LOL 😊

Today Chris and I have been married for 15 years. We're celebrating with our first weekend away from children while my mom watches all four girls. We rented an old Victorian from the 1800s near the coast in Galveston, Texas and spent the day at a spa, eating delicious food, walking the beach under the stars, and finished the night with a bottle of bourbon saved from when we lived on Nantucket. I'm not sure I could have asked for a much better day. I even had an oppotunity to get out the lightship basket purse Chris gave me for our 5th anniversary. ♥️
