TODAY WAS NATALIE'S OFFICIAL BIRTHDAY (THE ACTUAL DATE OF BIRTH). SHE GOT A HAPPY BIRTHDAY SONG AT THE BREAKFAST TABLE...ANOTHER PRESENT (THIS ONE FROM HER SISTER--LOTS OF PRESENTS!!) AND A BIG SURPRISE THAT WE SPRUNG ON HER LATER IN THE DAY...
SHERYL WENT TO HER SCHOOL AROUND NINE AND HELPED WITH A PROJECT (IT'S READ ALOUD TO A CHILD WEEK IN VIRGINIA) INCORPORATING THE SLIPS YOU FILL OUT WHEN YOU READ A BOOK (THE SLIPS ARE RED, WHITE, AND BLUE, SO THEY ARE MAKING A HUGE AMERICAN FLAG!). THEN SHE CAME BACK TO THE HOUSE AND AT 11:45 WE ALL WENT TO NAT'S SCHOOL AND JOINED HER FOR LUNCH (THE PARENTS CAN JOIN THEIR CHILDREN ANYTIME THEY WANT). SHE WAS VERY SURPRISED! WE SAT IN THE CAFETERIA WITH ALL HER FRIENDS AND HAD CAFETERIA FOOD FROM THE LUNCH LADIES(I HAD A HOT DOG--IT LOOKED SAFE.) DADDY BROUGHT A SMALL CAKE AND HER FRIENDS SANG HAPPY BIRTHDAY... THEN HER TEACHER ALLOWED UNCLE JIMMY TO TOUR THEIR CLASSROOM AFTER LUNCH...VERY IMPRESSIVE (THE SCHOOL IS VERY NEW AND THE PRINCIPAL IS A HIGH TECH ENTHUSIAST SO THE CLASSROOMS ARE VERY STATE-OF -THE-ART)...
BACK TO THE HOUSE AND A QUICK NAP ON THE DECK IN THE SUN AND SOME MORE READING (CROSS BY JAMES PATTERSON...STARTED IT YESTERDAY, WILL FINISH TODAY---VERY GOOD!)...SHERYL HAD TO PACK FOR A TRIP TO WEST VIRGINIA AND LEAVE RIGHT AFTER THE GIRLS GOT HOME FROM SCHOOL. SHE'LL BE BACK ON THURSDAY SO I SAID MY GOODBYES AND THANKED HER FOR A GREAT START TO THE ADVENTURE...
GOTTA RUN...HAVE A TEE TIME THIS MORNING! LOVE THAT GOLF YOU KNOW!!!
