Boring!

I suppose this will be a less than stellar post. I have no video, no pictures and at this point no idea what is going to roll off my finger tips into this blank box. Nothing is going on. Tracey has returned from her business trip to Austin, TX. Marin and Daddo survived. Marin missed her mom dearly, but managed to stick to her routines and continue to dazzle us with her latest "tricks." The whole thing would have been impossible without Grandma Mac's arrival last Saturday. She's been so busy that we (Tracey and I) are afraid that she may never want to return. She primarily played with Marin, and tended to Muzzy, and cooked meals, and baked cookies (and biscotti!), and cleaned the kitchen, and sent letters...It has been wonderful.
Since her return (and even while she was gone), Tracey has been feeling ill and again, simply running the house would have been impossible without Grandma Mac. Sadly, we are dropping her off at the Jackson airport this afternoon.
Ah yes, Marin's latest tricks:
  • counting to ten, as long as you say every other number
  • Understanding weather...lately we've heard, "Rain. Wet" and "Sun. Bright"
  • Walking around picking things off the floor and telling us who it belongs to...inevitably "Daddo's!?"
  • Walking right up to Muzzy for a kiss, or as we call them a "Muhh" (the exaggerated sound of a kiss)
  • Asking for songs by name. Okay she only asks for the below video and song.

  • Enjoy and just try to get it out of your head!
