We just got back a few minutes ago after having a nice day celebrating Mikel's birthday. It's winding down what I think is the biggest birthday month around here. Just one more to go. I think. I hope I haven't missed anyone.
It was a good day all around. A lot of food, as is typical at any Denny involved gathering. We could feed a small third world country on what gets consumed at them. It just always amazes me how much anyone with Denny blood can fork away. I get full even watching Garnet eat.
It's nice to have summer getting into full swing. While Markez is almost constantly hyper, at least it's a nice relief not having to worry about getting him to do school work. I know Amber's enjoying the relaxation involved in that. At least he's old enough that we don't have to keep a constant eye on him and can actually sleep occasionally. I can't imagine what it will be like when he's finally an adult and out of the house. I suppose it's conceivable that I might miss the noise. You never know, right?
I think I'm going to try and get some sleep and ward off the headache that's threatening. At least it didn't hit in the middle of the festivities.
summer,
family,
