 The wifi is giving me a hard time this morning, and I hope that isn't going to be an all-morning thing. So frustrating.

 Barry and I drove down to Firefly yesterday afternoon. I think he wanted to show me what was going on with his oyster baskets. We took our lists and planners and spent a few minutes at the kitchen table working with them. It wasn't quite enough for me, and i had to get back up in the middle of the night to finish it, but it was a pleasant time.

 We had Second Sunday Supper on Saturday so that it would be easier for Tori to be here. It turned out that, at least on this particular Saturday night, it also meant that the older grandbabies could stay and finish their game of Nines. And so, with the house mostly empty except that table full, they gathered up in the dining room and played and talked and laughed. It was like an impromptu Goodtimes, and I loved it. Barry was talking about it the next day. 

 We got to meet Logan, Angela's friend. Andrew, Annette and Chris were the only big kids here, and the younger grandbabies had claimed the square table by the time the older grandbabies had their plates, so Angela and Logan, Tori, Kennedy, Brittany and Jon Marc sat at the kitchen table with us. 

 Brittany had posted about her first field day, and so I asked about it. They had to get off the boat and walk close to the shore, which was lined with cyprus stumps. The water was about four feet deep and the tide came in some while they were out, and she fell and cut her hand and since she is 5'1'' the walk back to the boat was kind of interesting. 

 We got to visit with Andrew and Annette, chatting about his work, etc. They came back out on Sunday to work on a project for Annette's events and I got to visit with her. 

 Tori came over Saturday morning, and she and I got to just hang out and visit. 

 Ashlyn sent me a friend request. 

 Daniel led the blessing and Karly led the birthday song.

 Faith didn't stay for Second Sunday Supper, but she came by early so she could visit a little. 

 Skyler took the pictures for me.

March 27, 2019 I have delivered our Wyatt personal tax paperwork to Taylor's office.  Walked with Bertice.  Did a little writing that I found fulfilling. Got a text from Kennedy --- she said she has some good news. Heard from Morgan. She is going to be off on Fridays from now on and is going to come volunteer with me on Friday.  Noah's team won yesterday.  Evan and Chelsea and Jaden and James came over last night. James gave big smiles and is holding his head up strongly. Jaden just enjoyed running around in the back yard, throwing the ball. He loves jumping down from the fireplace and looking at each one of us to make sure that we are each clapping. At one point, he came and got each one of us by the hand and took us back to the family room so that we could play the game again.  Evan starts as Assistant Manager next week.

June 27, 2019 Amber sent me a text to let me know she received her birthday cards. She said, "Thank you so much for my bday cards. It made my day getting them, especially the one from second Sunday. I have been homesick since I can't be home for my birthday. I love you, Grannie!"  Heard from Andrew and Skyler and Tori and Kennedy. Tori and Josh were getting ready to play an online game with Josh's brother. Kennedy said they had a little hiccup in their presentation, but that they got through it.

July 8, 2019 Morgan's post on Facebook How is our tiny perfect human 9 months old already? 19.8 lbs of thick thighs n big blue eyes. Davis is so much more than we ever could’ve dreamed up. He’s spunky and hilarious, feisty and persistent. He amazes me every single day. This month he slept through the night for the first time  🙌🏽 We’re up to 6 teeth and the cutest toothy smile ever. Baby shark do do do do do do. He’s standing up on his own and I swear will be taking off walking soon. He loves pushing his truck around and walking behind it. This wild child is into every thing and could sit in his swing under the house for hours if I’d let him. He started swim lessons and is learning how to float like a big boy on his back. He said his first words, bye bye bye bye bye, and brought big ol elephant tears into this mamas eyes. Our perfect baby boy is growing up right before our eyes and I’m just doing the best I can to absorb every second of every moment because ...
