the 3 oldest kids have been at “camp gran” all week. chad was in atlanta most of the time…leaving me and flicka to fend for ourselves.
luckily…flicka knows just how to have a good time.
she scored a ride on her “hi-yo” with UK at the boardwalk.
i’m of the opinion that if you have the option to get your face painted…you might as well just go ahead and do it.
when i told her about a unicorn…i imagine her thoughts went something like this:
“are you telling me that there is such a thing as a MAGICAL hi-yo???”
“i’ll take it.”
and whether or not to ride the hi-yo again or take the balloon ride was a tough decision.
and one that she ultimately regretted.
i heard about it the rest of the afternoon.
and some the next day.
“me. hi-yo. now.”
we swung an invite to the pool one afternoon.
where we got to reunite with our people.
chad finally got home last night. he took us to do a little shopping and then to eat italian.
we go pick the kids up this afternoon. and i can tell you one thing…as much as she likes her attention…she is anxiously awaiting their return.
and so am i. it’s time the ducks are back in a line.
and as much as i should have enjoyed this quiet week…i’ve realized something about myself:
if i’m home…
i want everyone else to be also.
i don’t do quiet very well.
and i’m ok with that.
