My Real Life

Days End

It’s been a busy week.

Aside from my regular work, I taught a course for our Professional Development Academy, Baby Monkey battled a stomach bug that he then passed on to Real Man, and I had to finalize housing 98 college students who are coming to town to play a concert from my alma mater, The College of Wooster, in Wooster, Ohio.

And it’s only Wednesday.

Here’s the good news.

It’s been a beautiful week.

The monkeys have been able to play outside in the warm, albeit muddy, yard.

I’m feeling better every day.

The course I taught went well, and I was really impressed with the teachers who attended.

Real Man’s bout with the stomach bug was short lived, and no one else is showing signs of having caught it from him.

Every night, after the boys go to bed, while Real Man checks our stocks and his e-mail, Monkey Girl sits on my bed with me, and reads a book.

This week, she took out from the library a series of books called “Tales of…”  Tonight, she read tales of India.  Last night it was China.  Who knows what tomorrow will be?

She reads and giggles and asks how to pronounce things and reads passages out loud that she thinks are interesting.

She is pure delight and makes a long week more than bearable.

Love her.
