Rye’s Shangri-La

Things are going well over here in our world.

My fever is gone and I took my first standardized test in years on Saturday and hopefully passed.  Don did some serious cleaning around the house while I was out and our kitchen is now cleaner than I think it’s been in years – it’s wonderful!

And Rye spent both Friday and Saturday nights at friend’s houses.  Well, him and his friends all spent the night together at one person’s house Friday night and then moved to another one’s house for Saturday night.  Which means he’ll be exhausted tonight.  But he’s been having a blast so it’s all good.

This is what it looked like (although frankly they are all quickly getting much bigger than this but it’s close):

And they probably spent the weekend doing things like this:

stand-by-me2

And hopefully not this:

Although knowing them, it’s a definite possibility.

But I’m glad he had fun.

After all, isn’t that what being a kid is all about?

    Dear Meg,

    I have just read your comment over at Furious Seasons blog, and I have to say my eyes were teared up when I read it.

    I hope the best, and all the world to you and your son.

    Thank you, Stephany, for the personal interest you have taken in Rye. I carefully listen to everything you have told me regarding your daughter and I’m so sorry for everything you have both had to go through. I wish it could have all gone differently. I feel so blessed though to have met you through our blogs and I feel like someone upstairs sent you and Philip Dawdy into my life to make sure I make well informed decisions regarding my son and for this I am forever grateful.
