Another Birthday Party

Today we are going to celebrate another Birthday in the family.   Tim, Bob's son, will be inching up another mark towards that 50 mark.   It cannot be possible that Bob's kids are all getting  close to that milestone.   We are still that age!

This evening we will have four generations for dinner...hopefully I can get some good kodak moments to share.   The newest addition to the family, Payton,  is a real charmer.  She is such a cheerful and happy baby.   Often times when babies are newborns they have to grow into their features...not Payton, she was a beautiful baby right from day one.   A good time will be had I am sure.

I am sitting in the  Therapy waiting room thinking about how this has come to be like home over the past 9 months .   Everyone seems to always be wearing a smile...even other patients waiting for their appointment.   We are so very grateful for all the dedication and patience they have had while we have been in their care.  It is a bittersweet time as we say goodbye to everyone and put all of the therapy into practice.  

I believe we have a travel partner already.  Last night Murphy paid us a visit.   I suddenly am getting a check engine light  on the Jeep so tomorrow into the shop we will go.   I suppose that it is better to have it happen now while we are still in familiar surroundings....but why must it happen at all??? 

The weather is getting colder day by day and the trees are losing their leaves quickly.   I almost feel quilty leaving family and friends behind to deal with winter.  Their day will come.
