while we were out

A little magic happened while we were away in Canada…

#1. I suddenly stopped feeling like I wanted to die for much of the day.  I almost didn’t realize it until I got home, but the nausea is all but gone.  Hallelujah.  I think I’m a little less tired too, but I’ll let you know when the jet-lag wears off.

#2. This very cute boy lost his two front teeth.  For some reason, the Tooth Fairy brought twice as much money at Granny’s house (one tooth) and at the cousins’ house (the other tooth) than she does to our house!  I guess our Tooth Fairy is a little chintzy.

#3. The first yummy tomatoes ripened in our little garden.  It isn’t going to be a huge harvest — apparently tomatoes don’t enjoy a hot, dry summer any more than we do.  But, there’s no tomato like a tomato you grew yourself.

    I am so jealous that we couln’t go. Clearly we haven’t seen you n a while; I hd no clue that you were growing out your hair. You’re looking lovely!

    Your boys were sure fun to have at our house last weekend. They are all such good kids. I especially enjoyed pulling out Ben’s other front tooth. Oh, and sorry about the tooth fairy’s extra generosity while Ben was here at our house. Inflation, you know…

    Your hair does look really great in that picture! Yes, Andrew with his secret obsession with pulling teeth was overjoyed that Ben’s teeth came out while they were here. I wish I could have been there when you first saw him with both front teeth missing! Glad to hear you’re feeling better too. That makes such a difference!

    Isn’t that the best feeling. Waking up, and waiting for the feelings to come and figuring out, you are just hungry?! Maybe I should have left the country, do you think that’s what did it? What a great trip. When you said Nova Scotia, I totally thought Anne of Green Gables, I love the opening scenes from the movie, things look so beautiful.

    So three things. Matt looks so serious in that picture. Your jacket is really cute. And I am glad you are not sick any more because to be honest…that is my worst fear about getting PG.

    1-Wish I had been at the party!
    2-Now Ben matches Andrew!
    3-The harvest is on at Nana’s and we have been feasting. Tonight, we are having BLT’s with the T’s compliment of Nana! BTW-she just got home. It took her 3 days to get here. Thank goodness nobody else had to endure that kind of nightmare. Poor Nana!
