Line Sprung a Leak = Improved Longer Line

The splice went well, aside from the wailing. No TPN for 4 hours and the tongue depressor splint has to stay on for 48 hours. Attached is a very lowgrade Vimeo of us at the break dance competition at Western a month ago.

Easter Egg Hunt 1.0

Bo went to 2 egg hunts. These pix are from the 1st one like 2 weeks ago. I had to place the egg in his hand. By the second one, he was straining at the rope, ready to get some eggs! What a funny guy.

2 hour countdown

Easter Vigil starts at 8:30pm, but I have to be there early. So in 2 hours, I'll be at the church ready to get dunked. The consolation is that Fr Ken has to get into the font, too. Another bonus, I get to wear a scratchy nylon robe (like a choirboy's), so don't have to dress up!

Here is Annika, Dyann, Bo and Yours Truly.

From Feb's Broviac Replacement

The lag in posting pix is one part foot dragging and one part emotional. I just can't bear to post anything scary while or too soon after it's happened. While I know this frustrates many of you kind readers who would appreciate very current photos, I just can't do it. These pix, for instance are from February's broviac replacement surgery. So the pix I posted around that time had nothing to do with this, which was soothing for me, and allowed me to look at pix of baby that didn't increase my blood pressure. And posting these pix today, a month and a half after the fact only make my heart skip a beat a few times, instead of stopping it entirely. All's well that ends well.

SNOW!

I knew we wouldn't make it out of March without one last crocus-killing snow. Pictured here: the peace dove at church (forgot to post last time), and Gramma!

Holy Week, Cuz It's a WHOLE WEEK!

I just checked the calendar and I'm scheduled to be at church 6 times in 7 days for Holy Week. Talk about Catholic hazing. I was joking with my friend who is a minister's daughter and was like, "so after all that church for Holy Week, does that mean I don't have to go to church again for a year?"

She was all, "Uh. No."

Bo and Jose wander around while I'm celebrating mass. Here he is admiring the kickin' stained glass peace dove.
