Hey, Mom. How are you? I’m sitting here almost ready for bed, and I just wanted to share some of the weekend activities with you. Of course, Ramsey did horses this weekend. They had some sort of yoga class where the riders weren’t using reigns. Ramsey was on the horse completely bareback, and she was the only rider brave enough to face backwards and ride. I’m such a ninny and forgot to take video or pictures of my brave girl. It was fun to watch and just be in the moment with her.

Ramsey has also really been enjoying drawing, which I know I’ve mentioned. I did get some video of her drawing all her Sago Mini friends riding a bus. She is so creative!

I wasn’t able to see Jade on her birthday. She had plans, and Leighann came up to visit her this weekend. I let Ramsey leave her a voicemail singing “Happy birthday”, which Jade said made her cry. We finally got to see her today to give her the gifts we got. We took Dandi to play with Charlotte. I’m so relieved they get along so well. Here is a little video of them playing together.

We lost another sugar glider this weekend. I found our little gray face, Ollie, at the bottom of the cage. Poor little guy. He was my shy little glider, the escape artist. Now, we’re down to three. I love the little suggies, but they deserve better than we give them. I think we’re just going to be a dog family when our little colony is depleted. As much as I love caring for different types of pets, we just don’t have the ability to do it anymore. Besides, we realize that pups are our preferred pet, and there’s nothing wrong with that.

I miss you so much, Mom. I had a bit of a weepy moment today. I think I’ll probably get those for the rest of my life. I just had a vision of my hair getting grayer and grayer while yours turned white. I had imagined that someday, you would move in with me so I could take care of you. I actually looked forward to the time when you would live with me again so we could have those giggly moments with laser puzzle pieces and contemptuous conversations about the dumbasses who roam our planet. I feel very cheated. I wasn’t ready to lose my best friend.
