We began the weekend with some playtime at the neighbors for the kids while I was working in the yard and Daddy was making a nice Shabbat dinner. It was peaceful for me and a regular balanced day.
Saturday we had a family over that we met through our synagogue. They were kind and all the kids enjoyed playing together. 2 out of 5 members of this family are deaf, and we worked around it with writing since none of us know much about signing. Our family will continue to practice though and I hope that a friendship will develop since we had so much fun! After that Nana and Papa joined us for a peaceful and delicious dinner. Papa even managed to beat me twice in cribbage and that's a first!
Today we kept it low-key with obstacle courses, making pictures on the computer, reading, cupcakes from a Tasty Science kit, dancing and Daddy's first treasure hunt. His favorite clue was, "Sofie keeps her boogers here". I won't share the answer, but everyone in the house knew right where to look.
We are so blessed to have all that we have in our life. It requires a lot of effort, but the rewards far outweigh the trials!
