Yesterday we were all outside and Barry was doing his ‘life’s work’ of raking the leaves that fall from our Tulip tree in the backyard while waging a war against the ones in the front yard. Maggie was helping him and Audrey and I were … helping in our own way. Audrey has adopted a red haired doll that belongs to Maggie and carries it around, rocks it and calls it her own. Thankfully Maggie, who is truly a mother to New Baby, is fine with Audrey taking over the other doll. Audrey spent her time outside yesterday playing chase, riding in the wagon and babbling at the rest of us. She’s a happy little camper…..and a good little mama to boot.
