Happy Monday 4/11/05

Hi again, everyone. What a great weekend, huh? I mean, at least in the Northeast. The weather was just perfect for...

...the Mets to get their first win! (Pedro and Carlos, our off season acquisitions pay off!)

...Liam's first baseball game of the year. (Coach pitching) The Green Machine made Fof3 so proud. They were looking all spiffy in their green uniforms, listened to Coach John and behaved wonderfully. Their sportsmanship made me prouder than heck. Not only did they cheer their teammates on, but they cheered a boy from the other team who needed a lift. Little Lucas, whom I'd never met, clearly was at a disadvantage but tried so hard that he inspired all of us.

The weather was just perfect for Liam to get 3 hits out of 4, get plunked on the head by a wild Dad pitch... Thank God for helmets. Fof3 knew Liam was ok, then scoured the stands to see Mof3's reaction. She was ok... I even saw a smile come across her pretty face. (The ball is very rubbery!) (Phew!)

The weather was just perfect for yesterday to be picture day and for all three to have their photos taken.

The weather was just perfect for 5 of Caitlin's friends to come over and make a music video for their science class. They are using an Usher tune to explain the difference between solid, liquid and gas. They giggled all the way through it!

The weather was just perfect for Mof3, Caitlin, Noelle, Grandma, Nonna and Aunt Roseanna to go to a Mother/Daughter Tea Party at school. This was the long awaited fund raiser that the girls say was wonderful.. Mof3 and Roseanna put together a basket of Coach items as a prize and a very nice lady from school won it. <<---Good for you, Liz. (and thanks again Roseanna.)

The weather was just perfect for Fof3 to see an old friend again, Nina. Nina is 16, adorable, sweet and doesn't let Down's Syndrome stop her at all. She was at picture Day with her sister, Sophie and we had some laughs as Fof3 kept losing to Nina at some game on her gameboy. <---Cool Gameboy, Nina..I like the color.

The weather was just perfect for Laim and Fof3 to go out and play some hockey Saturday. We had fun. Then as we were leaving, we were challenged to a little 2 on 2 basketball by two teenagers. We took them on, spotted them a 3-0 lead before winning, 7-5. It was fun and the boys were really nice to Liam, as they knew it was his first game. Liam held his own though... really cool.

The weather was just perfect for Noelle to go to a birthday party at the local bowling alley. She had a great time. Noelle has a great time everytime, everywhere she goes. <--- That's awesome, honey.

The weather was just perfect for my tulips to grow hearty and strong. Pics soon, I promise.

The weather was just perfect for me to think up a new question: What is your ideal vacation spot? Go.

Thanks for reading.
