Picnic

Listening to Paul's orientation lectures about medical school was terrifying and overwhelming. The essence of the Dean's lecture was "These students are MINE (insert cruel laugh here) and they will not have time for any of you - ever" After hearing hundreds of people tell me thousands of times that I was going to be a "single mom" as soon as they heard the words 'medical school' the orientation did little to quiet my concerns.

Luckily, it has been an amazing experience to have Paul in school. He is really busy but he does an awesome job spending time with me and the kids. Having him gone most of the time means we do lots of fun things when he is home. He goes on one-on-one dates with the girls, reads an extra story every night, and even makes taking out the trash a fun thing to do with dad. Here are some pictures of a picnic we had with dad during his lunch break:

Big enough to climb up all by herself, sort of

She went down the slide backwards and thought she was the first person
EVER to think of doing that

More fun together
