Monday Mawn-in
We had a good weekend. Friday I took Julie to Childrens and we got the “all clear” for her heart murmur! I wasn’t worried about it because there are countless people out there walking around with benign murmurs but it was really nice to hear good news.
Friday night Rachel and Boston had a sleepover at Granny’s because Boston is POTTY TRAINED! We promised him a sleepover as a reward and he had THE BEST time. I took advantage of being “half off” from kid duty and took Julie and London to dinner at Barefoot Bobs Friday night and then to the dollar store on Saturday. We managed a playdate and met a HUGE dog called MayDay and ran some errands.
Sunday I took John and the kiddos to the MFA and everyone had a good time. Karen, our tour guide, gave us gloves so we could TOUCH some of the exhibits. AMAZING! Even Boston had a good time.
TeamRachel aka mrskatvon is both a website to gain public awareness of Juvenile Batten Disease (which affects my oldest daughter) as well as a journal to remember the events in our lives.
Rachel was diagnosed with Batten Disease in July 2009 and while we knew something was "not right" we had no idea that such a nightmarish disease existed. There are dozens of nasty, orphan disease which affect people both very young and old.
Aside from dealing with the changes of Batten Disease in my daughter, Rachel, I have tasked myself with making life memorable for all of my children to make sure that (at least) 3 of them grow up to be as well adjusted and happy as possible.
Rachel & Boston & Granny & Grandad had a wonderful time having a sleep over. What good children XX
