This has been an unbelievably trying week as a parent. Robert has been home with me all week and has just returned to school today. I am looking forward to the peace and quiet that today will bring.
I am also very much looking forward to this weekend. A friend of mine from Chicago is going to be in Indy this weekend and suggested that we meet up. Another friend and I are going to do so and we are so excited to get the opportunity to visit. And I am incredibly grateful to my husband who didn't hesitate to urge me to go when I brought it up. He is just such an incredibly supportive man and I have no idea how I got so lucky.
In addition to the parenting stresses, it seems as though my mother's injuries from last week's fall were more substantial than originally thought, and it appears as though surgery is in her future. As always she is fabulously philosophical about everything, but I can't help but wish she just didn't have to deal with so much. We know, though, that it could be much worse and try to keep that perspective!
