*buen día

We had a great day! This morning Vera and I went to our first little art class held at the park. Sam and Amelia were there too and Vera anticipated it all morning repeating, "see Mimi? SamMimi?" and boy were they all excited to see each other!! They greeted with squeals and hugs - all on their own. Sooo cute. The class went well, Vera was superexcited to paint and show off her caterpillar [later at home she sat Bunny in her lap and showed him: "Cata(piller) make. yeah? see? make..." in the sweetest motherly voice :)] Afterwards the three ran back and forth through a stretch of puddles for at least 15 minutes before heading off to run a million circles around a fountain, stopping to splash every lap or so. Vera was SO happy!! Well and me too, it's so good to hang out with friends. Then we got to ride the cars + airplanes which of course they all loved. Ben took Vera for a nap-walk and I got to sit and fold laundry and tomar mate in peace and quiet. Work was smooth and lucrative and Ben and Vera had a great night here: eggy soup at our favorite chinese place, more play with neighbor Graham, a bike ride, more fountain playing, and then she only cried 20 minutes at bedtime!!!! Perhaps we're on our way back to normalcy?

No pictures but worth remembering!
