At the Pool

Yesterday we went to a church picnic which was held at the local K of C, and I do mean local, it's not even one mile away, super close!  The girls had such a good time and saw so many friends that today I went and joined the K of C pool and we went back.  We might go every damned day this summer, they had such a great time.  I was worried about Felicity back at a pool after her mishap over spring break (and I do mean break, ha ha ha) but she's fine.  She's not the best SHARER in the world and she is a little inept, socially, but it was really fun overall and I am bullish for the future.  And I never am!

Summer Break

Isn't she cute?  Isn't that lucky?  Here she is yesterday, at a local park which has a creek.  She is holding a tiny seashell.  She kept picking them up and then dropping them and then we had to wade through the creek to get to where there were more shells.  She was crying over losing some and I said, come over here there are millions.  She was so confused, she kept saying "I want the millions! Where are the millions!"  Then she changed it to communion and she was wailing, "I want communion! Take me to communion!".  We collected a lot of shells and I put them in my coffee cup, where they will stay until I throw them away later.  The good thing about Felicity is that she won't remember.  Maria would ask me for them like one month later, but so far, with Felicity, it's out of sight, out of mind.  

She is going to summer camp at her preschool on Wednesdays.  I did a computer job that paid $160 and for her to go for seven Wednesdays this summer it cost $160 so, perfect!  Whatever it takes to keep her busy, boy she does not like to be here with just me.  Maria and Veronica have Vacation Bible School next week and so next Wednesday I'll have like three hours of freedom or something, ha!  But she really seems to be enjoying it, she asks every night if she is going the next day.  

Maria had a  friend sleepover on Saturday night so all the girls were up until 10:30 and awake yesterday by 7:00 so I thought we'd keep them busy so we could not have too many breakdowns.  We went to church and then to lunch with some friends, went home and changed and then went to this creek for three hours.  They all slept well last night, thank God, so we can start the week.  We are starting the Summer Reading thing at the library and going to a friends' house for lunch.  Tomorrow we are going to the pool and Wednesday strawberry picking.  I cant believe it's summer again and we are doing all this running around but Felicity starts preschool 8/20 and goes five days a week so I am trying to enjoy each day, as my grandmother would say.
