Today was filled with visiting doctors to be sure we had all our vaccines up to date and to get prescriptions to take with us to Holland. Good news – they’re all healthy and don’t need any preventative care for another year. A health reminder – make sure you’re spraying your kids’ legs with sunscreen. Today was the third story I’ve heard of people dying from skin cancer from an innocent spot on their leg, that was treated and later turned to cancer. Two people have died, and one dear friend is treating her spot right now!! Summer is coming – take the 15 seconds to spray, including the legs!

The whole family went to the dentist today. No one really likes to go the dentist, but Dr. Murray is the nicest man I know. I love seeing him and hearing stories about his family and how they’re growing and studying and swimming and performing. He’s more than a dentist – he takes the time to chat, and to explain results and to connect at the human level. We leave there happy, despite Novocains, flossing, poking and cleanings!

I had a visit from a Relocation Consultant again to help me plan the international move details. This time I didn’t feel as emotional and I’m ready to get packing, just as soon as I stay home long enough to do the work! Maybe by the end of the month!! Then again…

We ended the day with a celebration – C’s baseball team was together again at Round Table Pizza – sharing a meal and beer and conversation with friends. Rachel brought her Sweet Tooth Confection Red Velvet Cupcakes for dessert. What a treat! There’s always next Monday to start a diet again, right?

I had to miss my Stella & Dot team meeting which I was looking forward to, but I couldn’t miss another event for lil’ C. I missed his game last weekend and am missing closing ceremonies this weekend, so there has to be some give and take. Ying and Yang… my best friends!

Hope you had a good day!! G’night.
