Tuesday, April 13, 2021 -- Mattie died 602 weeks ago today.

Tonight's picture was taken on April 4, 2009, at Mattie's 7th birthday party at the hospital. It was a very exciting day for Mattie. He spent the morning decorating the child life playroom, in anticipation of friends to visit after school to celebrate. The children had cupcakes, played games, opened presents and even assembled a 3-D puzzle of a dinosaur. 

 Quote of the day: Today's coronavirus update from Johns Hopkins.

• Number of people diagnosed with the virus: 31,344,324
• Number of people who died from the virus: 563,428

I got up at 3am this morning, in order to get ready, finish packing, and do some last minutes chores in Los Angeles. I have to say that every American Airlines person I interacted with today was lovely. That alone can make flying a much better experience! 

When I got home, someone gave me a big greeting!

The love of a dog!

Whereas Indie could care less. The beauty of a cat. Though I must admit, Indie is "Peter's Cat."

After I unpacked, we took Sunny for a walk! DC is in full bloom! Nothing like DC at spring time.

A beautiful sight!
