MorFar & Owen last nightMORFAR BLOGGING
Well, it’s been another wonderful and active visit here at the Johnson-McCormick household. In just a few weeks Owen and Kyle have grown in some very noticeable ways. The most noticeable, from my point of view, has been the way they are now talking with each other, scheming with each other, laughing with each other, and playing with each other. It’s fun to watch them. Even more fun to get on the floor and roll around with them, play airplanes with them, and try to keep up with the energy level. Of course, keeping up with the energy level by me, soon to pass a very significant milestone birthday (I can’t remember which one!) is a losing battle. It was rather interesting working with Kyle and Owen to blow out the birthday candles thanks to Heather who had un-extinguishable candles placed on the cake. It was delivered to me with too many candles burning and too much of the frosting already nibbled by quite a few anxious fingers. Everything about our visit was terrific – the great dinner out while Alex babysat, the great dinner in of beef Wellington prepared by master chef Janet, Little Gym, the sidewalk lunch on a beautiful, warm, Saturday afternoon in New Hope, the ride on a real train, and everything in this busy, joyful, full-of-life family. We’re already looking forward to the next visit.
