A Monday With Our Man!
In April, Rhodric had to request his summer days off... The problem with this bit is that most of our adventures are rather last minute and planned in a frenzy! There were a few dates we knew we had plans but other than that we didnt know, so he took a random Monday off (this last!) and we nearly forgot about it. What a great surprise to remember!
Things have been a flurry of moving to his parents (away in France for a few monthes), tearing down walls and knocking in doorways at our house, digging out and washing G's baby clothes and keeping up with our girl and selves as well. So Monday we took as a family day.
It started the usual way, G clambering into bed with us around 6am and us trying to sleep while she squirms and sings to her babies until the "timer" goes off for "up time." We didn't rush to do anything but made our way to our favorite breakfast diner then a quick target stop (are those ever really quick?) for some labor bag items then off to spend the rest of the day at R's grandparents. The live a little over 30 min away on a beautiful piece of land that overlooks the water. It was so good to be able to go and fellowship with them and rest. Usually when we go it's for a large family gathering and G is overwhelmed. But having a quiet house and no distractions she warmed right up to her great grandparents, especially grandma Lew. She helped her pick lettuce and wash it, feed the calf, and wanted lots of snuggle book time.
It was a day full of blessing!
