Our weekend was fairly busy. Catherine was going to my mom's to help with cleaning on Friday, so I decided it would be a good time for me to go up as well. Unfortunately, mom's a/c went out...never a good thing in July. The service company came right out were horrified to learn that the part couldn't arrive until this coming week...hopefully tomorrow. My mom started saying she could muddle thought, and we weren't having it! My dad had bought a portable a/c about 15 years ago and had given it to us when we moved here (not entirely certain why) so I came back home to get it (and Andrew), and back to my mom's we went. I'm so glad that she is able to be comfortable this weekend. I can't imagine otherwise.
Yesterday was the graduation party for Lyndi's sister, who was also a student of Andrew's her freshmen year. I was grateful that our morning started with sleeping in we had another relaxing evening. Today we were at church in the morning, and then spent some time working on the house. Today also had some emotions. At church this morning we were asked by a member if we ever hear from Robert. This person tends to think Robert is the greatest thing since sliced bread and doesn't always understand everything we've all been through. This afternoon I came home and after getting some work done around the house, I started organizing photos. Some of them were all the way back to 2017. I'll be honest, it makes my heart hurt a little bit. It's hard to look at the photos that have Robert in them and not remember how hard things were. And I miss the days of having Catherine and Thomas here and living together as a sweet little family. I'm so grateful to be the mother of all three of my kiddos, but today is one of those days where I feel a little sad that it all went by so quickly. And that makes me even more thankful for the photos!
