16-07-14

Barry bought the RV yesterday and we're making progress on getting a site set up for it. I'm glad to have a plan in place for that.

Evan and Chelsea were working 2 - 9 yesterday, so we went to Rouse's and got a birthday cake and took it up there. 

Daniel spent Sunday night with us. Noah came Monday night because Kim had a doctor's appointment. They filled the house with laughter and all wanted me to campaign for another night. By Wednesday evening though, they were ready to go home. 

Tyler told Beverly that they were having a tri night. She said, "You mean a night where you try to do things but can't?"
Tyler: No. Were you blonde?
Beverly: No, but you are!
Tyler held up three finger: Tri
They laughed. 

Wednesday, after I got a text from Kim saying that Noah was on the fence about staying another night, I went into the reading room where the boys were playing. I told them that they could stay another night, and I would ask their moms. Remembering Noah's last visit though, and how he'd gotten homesick, I said, "But some of you have been gone from home for a few days, and might rather go back tonight. It's not like we live in different cities, just on the other side of town. And Noah and Daniel don't have to make the same decision. You can each do what feels right to you, today. I'm going to go make a cup of coffee and I'll be back in about 5 minutes for your decision, unless you already know. ~ Noah got up, put his arm around my shoulder, tapped it gently, as he said, "I already know. I just want to go see my mom."
