| | While I was sick recently, Brad bought a package of chlorine-free disposable diapers for James since he was the primary caregiver until I recovered. Ha can change a velcro-fastening cloth diaper here and there, but we don't have too many of those and he certainly cannot cope with washing them. We had some disposables left over after I was better, so I did the church nursery a favor today and put one on him for church today. They did not notice, though, and saved the dirty disposable diaper for me as if it had been cloth. Next time I'll make sure to let them know when I put him in a disposable. Apparently those disposable diapers get more like cloth every day.
I went to the doctor last week and was pleasantly surprised to discover that I weigh 113 pounds. That's two pounds less than my college weight. When I told the family my good news, Jane said, "Oh, Mommy, you weigh so much!" Apparently it's not as impressive when your frame of reference is in the ballpark of forty pounds.
We finally have a very small garden in. Hopefully we'll get some more in later, but at least there's something now. I need to do a post on my misadventures in composting.
We're nowhere near the end of our second-grade history book, so we'll be continuing through the summer, taking probably just August off.
Suzie will be starting first grade in the fall, so she gets to graduate from her Sunday school class next week. She will be moving from her preschool class to Toon Town with the elementary school kids (and her sister). They're both thrilled to be reunited for Sunday mornings.
Brad and I have been honing our dream to live on a farm. We have actually chosen a place where we could buy a farm and he could work at Costco. This would be in the distant future, but the girls are so into it. I think they may never leave home if home is a farm. Here's hoping our mini-garden is successful ;)
