That’s not really the point. . .

We moved here in 2002 and so did my friend, Shelley. She and I worked in the same building although I was but a lowly admin. assistant and she a high up — what WAS her title? All I know is that now we both have new titles: her’s includes “Dean” and mine is now “Mommy”. We have been friends now for 5 1/2 years – that’s fun, really.

Miss Shelley was Little’s very first babysitter. Miss Shelley was the only friend to attend Little’s second birthday party. Little still believes that Miss Shelley is HER friend and comes to see HER! It’s debatable (smile).

This weekend Miss Shelley came out to visit and brought a buffet for lunch. There were pb&j sandwiches, chips, cheezits, strawberries!, applesauce, and raisins. . AND 100 calorie packs of oreos or fudge stripe cookies for dessert. My kids were in mini-heaven. Little walked around all day today saying, “Miss Shelley can bring you a special lunch again!!” We’ll see.

It was great to have adult conversation during naptime. Great to talk about what God is doing in us and the world around us. AND to top it all off Miss Shelley drove back out west that night to go to the movies with me. What a friend. What a blessing.

We love you, Miss Shelley.

In this picture it is important to note that Little is reading a cookbook and Miss Shelley is reading Karen Katz, Where is Baby’s Valentine. Hmm, Dean, eh?

Something about this picture makes him just look like such a big boy – no more baby. Man, I hate that.

KB has been turning from her stomach to her back with some regularity since she was three weeks old. It was constant but accidental. Last week it became purposeful and that meant we went into training. Yes, back to tummy training. All it took was three days and she had
it. I didn’t see the first time – neither did Honey for that matter. (I’m not sure how he missed it since he was sitting right there, but that is beside the point.) Well, she proved to me she could do it this way: I walked around the kitchen table to find her on her tummy in her bouncy seat. Good job, KB. Looks soooo uncomfortable!
