Spring Break Coming to an End

The last week has been busy but restful. Gabbie and I had to get in some doctor appts but overall we had a great week together. I truly enjoy spending my time with her. Even though there are moments where I wonder if there is not a 15 year old girl in that 2 year old body, lol. She's talking and using complete sentences, which is amazing. And even funnier is she tells on her parents quite frequently. For example, if daddy uses mommy's water bottle, she runs and tells me that daddy is using my stuff.
For fun this week we went to the Children's Museum and she had a great time. We only had one meltdown right before we left; her parents are learning.
As for Gabbie's dad, early in the week he had a couple of tv appearances with the team and on Tuesday, they were recognized by Gleaners Food Bank for their state championship win. One of the student athletes received some scholarship money so that was nice. The big news came on Wednesday when the coaches and team found out that Goodwill is sending them to Washington, DC to attend the National Goodwill Conference. There story of perseverance and heart will be featured to all who attend the national conference. And even better, they will be given the opportunity to meet President and Mrs. Obama.....now how awesome is that! An all expensive 4 day trip to DC and meet the President; I'm jealous! But it is well deserved....what an opportunity for those 8 young men; an opportunity of a lifetime.
Back to work tomorrow and life as we call normal. The good thing is this part of the school year moves so quick; school will be out before we know it.
