Soul Singer in a Session Band

We got back into the swing of things with school and work.

On Friday, there was a Parent Breakfast at Jack's school where he sang songs and played instruments with his classmates and Ms. Jan. Jack was all smiles and sang all of the songs including Puff the Magic Dragon. Later on Friday, we visited for a short time with Great Uncle Jon. While he was visiting, Jack and Lily were rolling around the floor together and Jack's shorts button hit Lily's loose front tooth essentially knocking it out. After Lily got over all of the blood, she was excited to put her first (non-pulled) tooth under her pillow. The tooth fairy showed up right on time.

On Saturday, the kids played soccer. Lily was scrimmaging another team and managed to score THREE goals! (Unfortunately we do not have any pictures/video.) It was pretty exciting and everyone was jumping up and down and cheering, we will try to get any future scoring on video. It was especially exciting since these were the first and only goals we have seen this season.

On Sunday, we visited with Grandpa Maurice, Grandma Phyllis, and friend Chris who was in town from Providence. Grandma Phyllis seems to be feeling a bit better which is great news.

Lily and Jack want to send out special birthday wishes to Grandma Gail who is celebrating her birthday on Saturday. Also Happy Mother's Day to all the mothers out there!

P.S. - happy birthday and mother's day to Marcy who only gets one day to celebrate both this year!

that concert was one of the best have ever seen...jack can multi-task - play his instrument and check out everything else simultaneously...he doesn"t even have to look at what he is drumming...quite the talent...and yay for the toothless soccer player, Lily...3 goals!! Wow!

Happy Birthday, Marcy!!!
