Spring is here! The weather is warm!

Hello all! It's been a while, very sorry, but we've been very busy up here in Boston. 

May has been busy going to school. She's done lots of fun things there -- feed the sheep, milked a cow, gotten entirely too muddy to be believed. At home, she helps set the table, clear the table, and (in therory) cleans her room. 

A few weeks ago, we went with The Hoberman family out to Castle Island. We had a picnic and watched the world go by. It was like a scene out of a Richard Scarry book -- we saw airplanes, helicopters, tanker boats, lobster boats, cruise ships, ferry boats, a water taxi, a sail boat, a fishing boat, and probably several others that I can't name. 

Here are a few of Auntie Jen's fantastic photos. You can find more here. 

Christopher's been busy with the move at his office and so working hard.

I've been getting ready for an Open Studio event that happened last week. I made little flower fairies and gnomes for May, if you'll remember, for her Advent calendar and a friend convinced me to sell some at Open Studios. We had a great time for two days and I actually sold quite a few -- enough to cover expenses, certainly. 

Here is an example of one of the families that didn't sell. (You can tell I took this photo myself because of how un-Jen it is.)

Let's see, what else? May is enrolled in school again for next year, same place and days but the morning class. She's a morning person, like her Grampy and her mommy and I think she'll do even better in that time slot. Plus it's a longer class, which means more time running around outside.

All of my friends named Jen who were pregnant now have babies, as does Sandra. Everyone is happy, healthy, and beautiful, with the possible exception of some of the older brothers, who are a little cranky. 

I hope everyone is having a lovely spring. I'll try to be better about updating things in the future.
