...followed by some time at Vancouver Lake.
Baby R was all about the sand and water. She marched right out into the lake like she owned it, then spent the rest of the time throwing sticks and little wet sand wads into the water. I had to practically drag her back to the car to go home.
Then there was Baby C, who took one step onto the sand, hated how unstable it felt (that's our guess), and stayed in the grass until we left. Here she is with Pop Pop.
After this, there was a Wendy's run, home, jammies and bed.
Hard Day Summary:
1. A counseling session with my shrink. She's proud of my progress but we talked about some hard stuff again. It's always draining.
2. A family member was sentenced for his crimes today. A few of us watched the proceedings on Zoom and two attended in person. It was an embarrassing, devastating shit show. The aforementioned criminal will spend 46 months in prison.
Bright Spots:
1. B received his diploma for his degree from Clark today! We're so proud of him!
2. After my shrink appointment, I took myself to lunch at Youskyme teriyaki restaurant and then bought groceries at Wal-Mart - all without the car. I'm trying to drive less, so this felt good.
