February included Lyla going to birthday parties and time at the park
after school with both girls and Friday afternoons in HMS gym, Lyla spending Friday
nights with Granny, multiple birthday parties and Lyla having surgery at The
Children’s Hospital to repair a hernia. And, unfortunately, a terrible shooting
at Parkman High School in Florida. I was pleased the Rotter Family went to a
local event supporting the end of such terrible and too common events in March. Although
hopeful, I’m not optimistic there will be real changes. I had an unsettling
doctor visit and emergency room trip associated with an abscess with discussion
of future surgery which fortunately, as of August 2018, has not been the case. As
I’m writing this I realize when school starts I will no longer walk Willow into
and out of school since she can be dropped off in carpool line. Although it will
be more convenient, one of the best parts of the day is seeing Willow bravely
walk into her class in the morning and sitting patiently on the bench with her
classmates after school and seeing her face light up when she sees me. Time
goes by so quickly and I try to treasure the memories and also look forward to
the future. We had some beautiful February days at the park. But there were
also a few cold, wet days we went to Chic Fil A after school and one day of
Sweet Frogs and Hobby Lobby shopping! After Lyla’s surgery she was not able to
play at her normal level of activity which was a challenge at times. But all
went well and she had no complications. I got her a lot of little gifts to
entertain her during her “down time”. It was a joy to see her enjoy them.
