My MIL is here to visit for the weekend. She is spending tonight in a hotel because she is here on business and has an early client meeting tomorrow that she wants to focus on. After work tomorrow she is coming here and will be with us until Sunday midday.

Joseph has really been looking forward to seeing "Meemaw" and was in rare form tonight showing off all of his new skills: doing a forward roll, jumping, identifying the letters of the alphabet, singing, and talking up a storm. She loved it, as any grandmother would, and we laughed at his antics. Both boys were up late waiting for her arrival, but both went down without a hitch. I am so thankful to have boys that sleep well. All of that time put into getting them established in their routines when they were little has really made it easier now.

Well, I'm off for now. I haven't really recuperated from staying up for the election and so it will be an early night to bed tonight.
