Planting, Growing
Mother’s day (May 10th, this year) and my birthday (May 7th) have always been squished together. I’ve never minded, I love my mom and it’s fun to share the celebration with others. This year Jacob and I went home to my mom for the day. I love being with my mom. I got some sweet presents, including test tube spice racks and a temple quilting pattern. Also, we all worked in my mom’s garden. It was fun. I did the hoeing and planting. Rachel and Jacob played with string, made straight rows and helped dad with the tilling.Rachel’s house is coming along. Her and Jonathan have been landscaping a bit, they’ve planted some flowers and put down some rocks and such, it looks so nice. She is having a cook out this weekend with some close friends, I’m so happy she is really finding happiness.
It felt really good to be done with exams, I finished my in-class exams on Friday and Jacob finished his launch on Friday too so we were free for the weekend! Granted, I returned to a full day of take-home hardcoreness (it was due Tuesday morning) and Jacob to some bugs but I love seeing my fam.
I am with you — visiting family is the best!
