I certainly enjoyed spending time with the family this past week. I missed Ryan and Jessica, but am happy they were with Jessica’s family. Abby and Jamie’s gift to us was amazing! They spent the better part of 4 days stripping, sanding and repainting our sad kitchen cabinets. They are now a lovely antique white with black metal knobs and black hinges, and they’re beautiful! It was a labor of love for them and we are very, very grateful. While they were anxiously engaged, I had the enormous pleasure to hold and play with Milo. The poor fellow has been sick, so he needed a lot of attention, which I was happy to give. Photos will come of the new kitchen. I’m very sad now that everyone has gone home.
