The internet is super slow tonight. I’m never sure if it’s an end of the month problem (there are some weird “fair usage” limits here which mean if you use up your allotted data for the month, they don’t cut you off, they just slow you down so everyone else has a fair chance at getting fast internet), if the government is intentionally throttling the speed (it is always slower during heavy protest weekends), or if sand has gotten in the system and is mucking things up. So just two quick photos tonight because if I add any more I’ll be waiting until morning for them to finish uploading.
My favorite Mother’s Day card from Caleb. I love how he captured my essence. Especially the tired part. It might be my favorite card ever. (Which is the real reason why I put it on my blog — though I appreciate all of you reading, I know someday I am going to want to be reminded of this beautiful scrap of paper that was hanging on my fridge in 3 different houses, but then got lost in one of our 41 bazillion moves. By putting it here, I can keep it forever.)
And a progress photo. Since Easter I’ve been going to big church and Camille has been going to her Friday School class. Not only is she excited about going (and talks about wanting to see her friends in the car on the way to church), but she wants her brothers to drop her off so she says “Goodbye!” to me at the church doorway. There is nothing half-way about her: hot or cold, fused to my hip or running in the opposite direction, and giggles or tantrums. It’s like flipping a switch.
