The Boy Once Again

Today is The Governor's birthday. I sent him to his first day of summer camp with his cheeks and limbs the color of perfect carmel candies from having visited the pool with my mother and father 5 of the past 8 days. He was at their house for the week, and just had the most fabulous time. He told me on Thursday night that he would like to stay there, but thankfully relented on Friday and said that his missed his mom and dad. I would have liked to say that I enjoyed the quiet of a child-less house, but I was sick for the entire week. I am still getting over my bout with some sort of weird summer flu, but antibiotics have been my friend for the past two days.

Tonight, we will have dinner at one of His Honor's favorite restaurants, and come home and unwrap presents and have a little cake (of the ice cream variety, of course). I will continue to wonder at all of the changes as of late, including a curiosity that rivals that of the best cross-examining trial attorneys out there. I missed him quite a bit last week, but perhaps I was too dizzy and exhausted to notice. But he is back with us and what a wonderful thing it is to hold his hand in mine.
