What's up?

We start another summer very busy as usual. Beatriz just finished 7 years of piano with a very special teacher with her Senior Recital yesterday. She did a great job. It was bittersweet. The total ending of her high school years and moving on to the college years and all the changes of young adulthood.

Our eldest daughter is in the last month of her second pregnancy. She is ready now but this baby will come when it's ready to come... The baby's room is ready, the bag is packed for the hospital, contingency plans for the 3 year old are in place... Ready.

Amanda is continuing her pharmacy tech. courses at the JC. She is taking two summer courses and continues to work part time at Party City. She is the one they call in for extra hours when big balloon orders come in. She is very consistent filling the balloons so they all look the same size.

Real Estate is so slow it seems to be going backwards. Chuck has taken a part time job that sends him all over the country for periods of time. He has been in Washington state, Oklahoma and Florida. He will probably be in Tennessee next. It is strange when he is gone because we go from him working from home and being here all the time to not at all.

Joshua likes to come to Mimi's house and ride in Mimi's car. He is here today enjoying train videos on Mimi's computer and watching Cars. His daddy, Jake, needed to work today because he wanted to attend Bea's recital yesterday. His mommy, Julie, is working a photo shoot for muttropolis all day today. Yes, that's right, she is taking pictures of dogs. This will be her last job until the baby is a few months old.

Like I said...busy, busy, busy...

I suppose my role in all of this is sort of like glue, or putty...
