Midwinter break 2024 was back by popular demand at Camp NanaBaba, hosted by the ever generous and creative dynamic duo NanaBaba!! Their week was full of adventure and exploration! What a special tradition of memory making. Thank you to Lynn and Duane for building the fort and the fires, cooking up the meals and the activities. A perfect week full of perfect days.

Wishing Lady Kitty a very happy birthday! Thank you for all the birthday wishes on the joyous occasion of her fourth birthday!
A festive tradition, by special request she spent celebrating her anniversary at Nana Baba’s with cake, balloons, fairy wings, her bro bro and a full week of Mid-Winter Break Adventure Camp ahead. A beautiful present and a beautiful horizon. A perfect birth-day!🎉 🎂 🎈
One morning of President’s Day Weekend Lady Kitty climbed into bed with me—in my bedroom at my parents house where we were staying and wherein I lived as a teenager— and cuddled up to me and wrapped her little leg around mine.
“When will it be morning?” she asked.
“It kind of is morning already. It’s just very early morning.” I said
“When will it not be early morning?” she asked quietly. “I see a little bit of light out there”, she continued. It was six o’clock.
“You’re my sweetest Sweetheart,” I said.
“Lake is your sweetest son,” she directly replied.
“Duane is your sweetest Dad,” she went on.
“Nana is your sweetest Mama.”
“Let’s go downstairs and see if Baba is there.” He was!
A perfect day! I’m glad all the Sweethearts get to spend the weekend together with NanaBaba, who are such esteemed and gracious hosts, devoted parents and loving grandparents. And then the kids got to stay the week for mid-winter break at the now famous Camp NanaBaba.
Last night I overheard Michael as he was putting the kids to bed, as is his custom when he gets home from work around their bedtime… he was counting super fast, and in a funny voice, and the children were laughing in hysterics. When they were finally all cozy and contentedly tucked in, he came out of the room. I commented happily that it seemed like they were having a lot of fun at bedtime.
“Kids really love counting. The fun never ends when you’re counting,” he said.
Infinite fun! That got me in hysterics!
And just in case you don’t find that as funny as I did, here’s some Valentine’s themed jokes for your amusement:
