But on a great note or two

we're having the Bean's birthday party in Arkansas (a small family deal). And there's going to be a ladies evening, a kids day a couple of dinners and Spring Fest!

Then another party, where she will get a bike (with training wheels, she's too tall for a tricycle) .

And this weekend is the fancy tea with the ladies I've been most excited to meet!

I think things are going to start getting better now.
