After swimming lessons today, the kids and I drove to our friend, Elisa’s house. Elisa is a wonderful, beautiful, intelligent, super funny woman with the gift to host, like nobodies business. In another life, I wish I could be as gracious and as welcoming as she. And did I mention she was also the girls’ Cubbies leader this year. Jory remembered going to her house last year and I’m sure he’ll remember it again because he got to have marshmallows. Marshmallows are a special treat and he got to use a bow to shoot marshmallows. He was in seventh heaven. Rowan was so excited she couldn’t even sit still to watch a movie, which is her favorite pastime. The baby was equally excited to be around kind, gracious people. The kids acted as if I’ve never taken them anywhere. And to top it all off, Elisa had a dog and we got to take the dog for a walk. TTT is probably hoping heaven is like Mrs. Elisa’s house.
It’s so nice to fellowship, hang out, and chill with another mom. I don’t do that enough. And it makes it all the better that she’s a Christian so we can talk about all subjects from devotionals to homeschooling to adoption to raising kids to everyday life stuff. Sisters in Christ rock! Mrs. Elisa rocks the most!! And we along with her two beautiful, smart children had a great time on Saturday. So thank you Elisa and family for a wonderful afternoon.
