Tonight's picture was taken in March of 2006. As you can see, Mattie and Peter were on the floor designing all sorts of things with Legos and train tracks. With Mattie, the possibilities were endless when it came to building. He could do this for hours, if he had a companion next to him. Peter and I, served as that companion for seven years.

The day started with Peter picking up Indie from boarding. Indie was thrilled to see Peter and the beauty of her, is she bounces back to being home immediately!
Unlike our former cat, Patches, Indie is easy going and adapts to her environment!
Mid-morning, we decided to start wrapping the Foundation's 10th anniversary gifts that we are giving to our core volunteers next week. Before I left for Atlanta, I ordered all sorts of gold themed wrapping paper. When I opened up a roll today, this is what I found..... torn paper and someone had literally used packing tape to put it back together. Needless to say, this is getting reported and we are going to ask for our money back!
What you saw above was one part of the roll, and what you see here was the other half. Notice that the gold stars are missing on most of the paper. This whole roll of wrapping paper is defective!
Meanwhile, while wrapping, we received a visit from a hawk. Right in the tree outside our window. I will never forget the last time I saw a hawk in that tree. Mattie was a toddler. He and I both observed a hawk swoop down on our balcony and grabbed a sparrow and flew away. Mattie and I were both very upset by this sighting! Somehow seeing this hawk today in the same location, evoked that memory.
In the afternoon, we picked up Sunny! He was thrilled to bolt out of boarding and escape to the car. We had the window down for him to smell the fresh breezes and then we walked him for an hour. He was one happy camper.
But overall, it takes Sunny a day or two to recover from boarding. He is a bit anxious tonight and staying close! Like glue!
