Summer will celebrate her first birthday later this month, and in her first year of life she sure has covered a lot of territory. Since I adopted her in September she has come to the United States, traveled to 7 different states, made a trip back to Canada, and this weekend she added Cape Cod to her travelogue. She really enjoyed her time on the Cape with my parents and my sister. So did I. It was exactly what we needed. I had been working incredibly long hours last week getting ready for camp to start tomorrow. A few days on the Cape afforded me the rest and renewal that I so very much needed. Summer even let me sleep in past 5am (which is often when she wakes me up because she is hungry or wants to play) then again my sister kept her up late the night before - which I appreciated...
My parents had never seen the West Wing before (my sister is a fan but not to the level that I am) so we all watched a few episodes from season 5 and it was really cool to get to introduce them to TV's greatest show...
All in all it was the best family holiday we have had in a while and I now feel like I am ready for camp to start...
