I was so thankful to make it home from our vacation in California in time for daughter Lydia’s momentous 16th birthday. Happy Birthday, Lydia!
Here is a cute birthday photo our daughter Laura took of Lydia:
Lydia, Rebecca and Seth took great care of everything (including themselves) while we were gone. One of the first things I noticed upon entering the kitchen was this list on the refrigerator:
Before Mama and Daddy get back…
- Really good vacuuming
- Clean all bathrooms
- Fold laundry
- Bake pie!
- Empty all garbages
- Exterminate fruit flies
- Generally straighten up house
- Seth: Clean up computer corner
- Revive plants!!
- Buy goat to mow lawn
That’s definitely all worth coming home to. Glad you had a good time.
What great kids you have! I love the last two items on the list!
Hi Joyce,
Glad you arrived home safely, and were able to celebrate Lydia’s birthday (cute picture). I love the list you found…too cute! Hope you enjoy you first week back at work.
I liked that list too! Very cute. 🙂
And yes…very special to have you, Dad and Dubie home for Lyd’s birthday–I know that means a lot to her!
Hi, Joyce, So glad you got back okay and had such a wonderful time in CA. It’s great you got to see some of your blogging buddies as well. Have a lovely evening.
I can definitely relate to your daughter’s hands as I have a 15 and 12 year old daughter.
Welcome home!
I love the list!
(I’d say that qualifies for rising up and calling you blessed.)
Love the list! Great kids.
Happy birthday to Lydia
