We've been busy since I last posted...just six days ago! Thursday evening the kids had their first swim meet of the summer season. They did relatively well. Thomas especially seems to be making progress. The important thing is they are enjoying it!
Robert had to be at a Navy commitment...at 4:30 A.M. on Friday!!! Ugh...that was early! I came back to bed for a bit after taking him (because he'd had such little sleep after the meet the night before), but Andrew had a class that day so I was on duty to get the kids to their swim practice. Robert had a major miscommunication (nothing new!) and arrived home from his event five hours later than expected. I'll be honest, I am tiring quickly of the demands being placed on him (and therefore our family). As I said to Andrew, they aren't yet paying him. If he was being paid, I would completely understand. However, that is not at all the case, and I am beginning to resent their expectation that he will have Navy obligations 3-4 days a week until he leaves for Basics.
I began painting our front hall Friday, and finished that for the most part on Saturday (I still have a couple of doors to do). Andrew was busy working outside on Saturday, and Catherine and Thomas helped with some outdoor painting while Robert spent the day with his girlfriend. Yesterday morning we were up and hit the road to visit my in-laws for Father's Day, and we will be here until tomorrow.
We've been busy, but I am enjoying our time together!
