Social distancing .... day 62

Thursday 

Today was a long and tiring day. However, there were lots of highlights. 

Work was crazy, but i was able to do some work outside again. The weather was gorgeous. 

We also ate lunch outside together today. 

In fact it was so hot I moved under the umbrella for shade! 

The girls and I got our delivery frkm fab fit fun today! We’ve been waiting for this for a while and we were so Excited. It’s the little things lately 

Aisling had another birthday parade today. Again it was so wonderful to see her so happy again. She misses her friends so very much. 

She worked very hard on a poster for Erin which she decorated with lots of memories and loving facts about Erin. 

Finally we were able to have a fire pit tonight. The weather was perfect. 

Aisling and I had some hard conversations tonight. Girl Scout camp has been cancelled and it was extremely upsetting. Aisling has had so many things cancelled. It’s really hard. She had a rough day today. Tomorrow is a new day and hopefully she will be feeling better. 

Social distancing... day 56

TGIF

Today was Friday. Thank goodness. Work has been insane all week so I’m glad to have a break. Today we had a social distancing birthday party for Siobhan! I made some cupcakes and we dropped off cupcakes, frosting, and sprinkles to a bunch of her friends. 

The girls then decorated cupcakes and Connor and Abby judged them! 

The girls seemed to have a great time. I haven’t heard siobhan laugh so much in a long time. It was great.

Social distancing ... day 55 birthday edition!

Thursday 

I looked it up. It’s 55 days. I don’t know how Imessed 

That all up! 

Today was siobhans 12th birthday. We tried really really hard to make it special during this social distancing time and I hope we were successful. :) 

The day was a pretty typical (for this time) day. It was wear your camp shirt day at camp runels. So that drove our dress code. 

Siobhan has a belly ache for most of the day. I think she had some anxiety of having a birthday in quarantine. But she could describe what was going on. 

We had lunch out today, and Siobhan was able to have a first come! She’s been asking for Diet Coke daily so today was special lol! 

At 3:00 we had a surprise parade for her birthday. She was very surprised! It was amazing and we appreciate everyone who came to make her day special!!

After that we had dinner and gifts and cake. 

Aisling made the cake. It was so good! I forgot to take a picture of the whole thing. But it had strawberries and had strawberry jam in the middle. So yum. 

She’s a little spoiled; but we’re hoping everything keeps her entertained for a while, since we don’t really know what the summer will look like. 

We also got a gift for the cat. Although I’m not sure the cat understands. Siobhan has been taking the take outside, so we got a harness and leash. We’ll see if the cat likes it lol! 

A bunch of friends came to the parade from RDA. While they were all visiting they realized they had missed clsss. Their teacher made them do their warm up right there. It was hysterical

Overall a really fantastic and fun day. It was a joy to see siobhan get so happy. We are so blessed to have such wonderful people in her life.
