Thursday...
Today Stephanie went to her last gymnastics class for the term. Mark and Mer were off work and brought Samara along to watch. Stephanie really did have a great time in that class and looked forward to it all week long, practicing her cartwheels, albeit she still leads with the wrong leg, mountain, table and other poses. Her favorite part of course was the parachute. As the day was a bit wet, and Michael was feeling under the weather, he stayed home from school to "rest" with his DS and Lego blocks. I decided to give both kids a break and we skipped swimming and taekwondo. Instead we enjoyed a wonderful meal that Meredith had prepared: French onion soup with croutons, polenta with grilled mushrooms, and steak. For dessert, Jessica made pumpkin pie once again, and everyone agreed it was excellent. Thank you family for these wonderful home cooked meals. We will surely miss them.
