ENTHUSIASM

                                              What enthusiastic cooks!  What a fantastic breakfast!

                                         Thanks Sandra and Randy.  Did I see a few new gray hairs?

                                         Our children have all turned into amazing cooks!

They are a busy pair, always building and gardening and painting and texting.  After they left dad tackled the dishes and I took Spenser for a long walk.  Then it was time for a short nap.  

Rick is busy shedding papers, no secrets to be left here or ending up at the post office..  Packing and sorting is a tiring job.  I am starting to realize he is leaving. 

He took time out to visit Ophelia and Astrid at the park from a distance.  Craig brought the girls over their.

Astrid was happy but Ophelia was not.  She was feeling shy.  Maybe the next visit will be better.
It was a cool day but being at the park can be fun anytime.

Dad took off to Canada Tire and I cut the grass at the side of the house.

The little neighbor boys came to take Spenser for his second walk.  Rik ha some little eggs left over and they were so happy to get them.  Happy Easter and  thank you as they waved good bye.

Rick cooked a wonderful supper and went back to packing.

His visit has had some difficult moments but he has been a great help. 

It will be a sad day to-morrow.

So Rick is leaving on Saturday. very hot here 31c today. I see that Vancouver is doing terrible with Covid. It's going to take some hard lockdowns to curb the transmission. At least 8 canucks have covid. No games until 8apr.

Is Dad going to replace the rubber stopper in the toilet that keeps running?

Instead of thinking about it being sad that Ricky is going home, think about how happy we all are that he has recovered and able to go home and resume his life again.

Randy and I did running around from one store to another, did some more work in the yard then he had to go to bed early as he was on graveyards.
