Running Late

Who knew you could be late for your own vacation? We initially thought we would be there by now but we appear to have hit a speed bump. Never fear all has been revamped and we are now leaving on Wednesday of next week. Lily and I will head over there together and spend lots of time with Nannie and Grandpa and all her cousins and then Jacob will join us later on. At least this time around he will be coming. Summer is so very busy and I thought it would be all layed back with no school etc.etc.
Lily actually went to camp today. A craft camp. It is only for 2 hours but it is called camp. She was so intensely excited last night that when I put her to bed she reappeared within minutes and asked me for a clock so that she would know when she had to get up. I showed her that when it showed 7.00am she could get up.When I went back a while later to check on her the clock was on her pillow. This morning she came bouncing into our room at 5.32 saying that she thought she may have missed the 7 on her clock. I groaned and mumbled that she was early and she just bebopped out of the room all giddy that she wasnt late! She had a great time and Jacob said that when he dropped her off she couldn't get rid of him fast enough.
Tonight was gymnastics and her and her friend Mia had their usual adventure.Thankfully there were no back flips tonight but she did do the balance beam which was quite amusing. She has such a great time and I love to see her having fun. And if you were wondering just how many leotards Miss L has I will never tell. Suffice to say I have a friend who connected me!

tell Lil that she is just like Ray when he has to be somewhere fun too....he insists we leave loads of hours prior so we are not late (what fun he will be when we are getting ready to leave for China...)

Lil is doing amazing at gymnastics by the way!!

I just love Lily's enthusiasm for life -- whether it is swimming, or crafts, or gymanstics...she just knows how to have fun. (kinda like her folks!)

Your vacation next week sounds like it will be just wonderful.
