Congrats PreK grad!

Happy 4th Mother's Day from BabyYarnoz! From the DQ

Life is good here in the BY Universe. I've been tasked with this post
since it's essentially about me. And Mike was working so he wasn't
there to witness the awesomeness.

We squeezed quite a bit into this Mother's day weekend, especially
since my ServeHAITI friends were visiting for our annual Board of
Directors' meeting. But not only that happened, Lala also surprised
us with a last-minute visit!

This meant one special occasion: Mother's Day mass with my mom.

Of course, in my mind this was going to mean an hour of peace and
quiet to sit next to Mom while the kids played in the free daycare at
church. But since the Pizz has become a big girl, and Mila wants to
be just like her, I dutifully hauled just Coco to the play room. But
no! At the last moment he says "Where's Mila?" and stuck out his lower
lip. So off to church we went.

The problems with three toddlers in mass is obvious: toddlers do not
like to be quiet, sit still, and they have tiny bladders. This was a
recipe for disaster. If I had planned for three small children in
mass, I would have brought a few options for entertainment.

But I'm happy to report that we had a Mother's Day Miracle, or my kids
are just that good. Because with nothing more than a few post-it
notes, 2 pens, a book written in French, a paper clip, and one leather
glove I managed to keep them in line. Hooray! And no one even had to
pee. I feel like I've arrived as a parent.

Happy Mother's Day to all the moms, almost moms, and every other sorta
maternal person out there!

Timber!

Alas, we tree huggers had to take down another tree. This one was dropping limbs through the new rubber roof on occasion. But hopefully we owl surprise you with something awesome in the end!!
