GOAL!!

Well, today's the day. Going in to work for my last day. "Day" isn't actually accurate--precisely, that is. I'll be there at 0800 as usual, but leaving around 1100 or thereabouts. Yippee! I have had Amy and Christy here this week with Dylan, James and Jake also. Yesterday Calysta came--of course Mark has been in and out all week, too. I had the pleasure of watching Jake and Calysta playing yesterday afternoon, and it was a testament to how he is treated when learning a new skill or just in general, maybe. Calysta asked him to hook up her Wii Disney Princesses game so he did. They were in the living room and he was showing her some of the finer points of how to play with the remote and Wii generally. His voice was gentle and his words were kind and insructive. What a wonderful little guy! I think they'll have a lot of fun next week when we're all at Amy's home. I can't wait. Bobby will have back surgery on Wednesday, August 19. I'll let everybody know how that goes afterward. Bye--next time you hear from me I won't even remember what I did for a living. hehehe

  1. CONGRATULATIONS, Linda. You are officially old...and out of work.

    I can't say as I look forward to either of those things, but I know you've been excited to get there for a long time.

    So, again, congratulations and enjoy your free time.

    Come visit us in Provo.
