Hello! Wow, good luck with the house hunt. I hope you get the one you want this time. It's so exciting. I don't own anything, the only idea just freaks me out, but I think sometimes, deep inside, it would be totally cool for Sabou to live in a place where I could say 'go outside and play' you know? And of course, a dishwasher and laundry stuff in the house would be great as well, maybe even central air... but you know, we do what we can do.
As for this summer, I can actually say that I think Sabou is having a great one. We went away for Memorial Day weekend and visited friends who own a big house, 7 acres of land, chickens, a tractor and an in-ground pool. She LOVED it. Then my brother just installed a pool in his backyard so that's been fun for her to hang out with the cousins.
In June, Youba decided to go on vacation to Paris without us, so I shipped her to my parents for a week. They live on the beach in Rhode Island, and with my sister in law and two cousins, she was able to play on the beach all day. I can't stand beaches. I can't be on them or near them, so it was wonderful knowing that she was not limited by mommy's problems.
This weekend we just got back from another fabulous weekend upstate with the pool, the chickens, etc.
For the rest of July we have two more weekends booked at my folks' place at the beach, and in August so far she's got two birthday parties - hers and two cousins.
I think this summer will be full of fun for her, and I'm very proud of that.
Thanks for asking. It's soo good to hear from you. Been thinking about you a lot.
