bonding with my daughters
Both girls were home last weekend. It was good to have them home, even though they spent a good deal of time screaming "I hate you" at each other --- just before deciding to go to see the Justin Bieber movie together in a "my sister is my BFF" kind of way.
Jen and I made a little trip to the ER Sunday night. Nothing serious, as I mentioned earlier....but it gave us some time alone, away from the rest of our family, to chat...I told her all about how I gave new meaning to the words "business trip" one time, wound up in a soft cast on my foot for two weeks. Strange how you can have a bonding moment while waiting for x-rays to come back.
Becca and I had some "alone time" on Saturday. She'd gone to lunch with a friend, then found her way into Barnes & Noble, where she'd bought herself a new game -- she loves to play "Scene It" and was excited to find the new Disney version of the game. She came home and asked me to play -- she knows I'm a Disney fan, I've played other versions of "Scene It" and she thought we'd have some fun. It's been a long time since we played any sort of game together. Of course, she's much better at the game than I am....it's been a long time since I've had to "let her win". Whatever tasks remained undone that day, it was worth it to spend time with Becca like I used to....
The house is quiet again ...too quiet....
