mdw had the sheer delight of a visit from her good friend Carrie, who had just taken a tenure line job at Western Kentucky University. We had such a good time (except for an incident with Samantha, who once again, tried to eat Odin – he is fine, recovering well, but the medical bill is coming out of Sam’s allowance). The weekend included shopping at H&M (mdw didn’t even know there was one in OH); attending Bebe Miller’s latest work “Necessary Beauty”; a beautiful drive and visit to Kenyon; scoping out porch geese; Cranium; and squeals of laughter. Good friendship is good for the soul! Thanks for the laughter, Carrie.
After sending Carrie off on Sunday, we headed out to a gathering about an hour east at a family farm. It was a gathering of families who have all adopted children from Latin America. It was delightful. Eaw loved the cows and the hay ride. mtw held his own during a sack race, and mdw ruled during a “poop the potato” contest. It was nice to see eaw among peers and to connect with parents with whom we could compare “birth” stories.
