Today

Today has consisted of

- buying chicken scratch
- giving Dash a bath
- packing all that will be needed and some of what might be needed in a remote village in the D.R.
- making two lasagnas
- searching for a post office, and finding one
- being anxious
- cleaning the chicken coop
- phone calls and Skype calls with loved ones
- making a paper chain of messages for the boys to use to count down the days until Mama comes home
- lots of hugs and kisses
- "I'll miss you, mama!" - Will
- "I don't want you to go!" - Max
- an excited heart
- Candy Land and puzzles
- the house being a mess (since I have been packing all day)
- Spiderman and Underwear Man running like mad men through the house (since I have been packing all day)
