The New Normal

Starting tomorrow, all the grandkids will be back in school. It’s going to be very strange not having to do the before- or after-school run for the first time in… 13? 14? years.

Good news is we still have Donovan two or three afternoons each week. He’s being homeschooled so his mom drops him off when they are done, on her way to work. 

See his holey smile? That tooth had been loose for awhile but was stubbornly hanging on … until D fell on his face yesterday and knocked it out. 🤣

His first day was today and we celebrated with a new Lego build. 

He picked this one out before we went on vacation and I think he’d forgotten about it.

He told his dad he built all these animals - it’s pigs birthday party, see the cake with candle front and center? - in 30 minutes. I don’t think it was quite that fast but it was definitely under an hour. Sweet boy does love his Legos!
