With the girls working our weekends just fly by. Meals are all messed up. They eat at odd times. They're home late and there is so much driving. I'm starting to see that having the 7 of us together is the impossible dream.
Fei got her first paycheque last night ;) Big milestone.
Yesterday the girls had a staff meeting. Lilli started at 11 and Fei started at 4. They were home at 9:30. They're cat sitting so Fei did that during the day and took Luk for the walk. He was thrilled to go and he got to use his umbrella so it was all good except the house is a block away. Fei didn't want the wheel chair so the poor kid was exhausted after the walk. Way too far for him.
I had to take Walter to Nanaimo to see a specialist who was here from the states. Three vets have seen him now and they all agree he needs his teeth out. Crazy. So he's booked with this specialist vet dentist. She's not back until end of June so he's staying on steroids until then with fingers crossed he doesn't develope diabetes. Prices are staggering. Poor wee guy. This vet wondered if we might prefer to put him down. Uh, no. He's not even three.
I took Jia swimming last night. It was her wish thing of the moment. She's leaving me alone today. She's out of things to bug me for. Such an exhausting kid. We had fun at the pool but honestly the gross factor is WAY up there.
The picture of the littles and the bear is from Canadian Tire. We got Fei s new bike. She declined posing for a picture. It was crazy shirt day at school. They were still sporting their shirts but Kai took his layered Hawaiian shirt off.
Today the girls both work different shifts. The littles are playing hard. I baked cookies for the Mothers Day Tea next weekend. I booked our last camping trip of the summer. Phew. Plans in place for the whole summer. I don't love the provincial booking system. It's really hard to know four months in advance! Already Kai has had two appointments booked during camping trips. I'll try and change them but it's never easy.
Mom and I are driving Lili to work this afternoon and picking up Fei. Then a trip to Walmart for school lunch supplies. No breaks.
A drawing with a story! Signs, arrows and a people. Major progress.
