Hey, Mom! How are you? Today is the first day of track out for Ramsey. Cliff had to go to the office, so I’m working from home to keep Ramsey company. Normally, Sandra would watch Ramsey for us during her track out, but she and Eddie are still in the hospital. Did I tell you that Eddie was diagnosed with esophageal cancer a couple months ago? Well after a successful round of chemo and radiation to shrink the tumor, he had surgery earlier this month. It hasn’t been easy on him, but hopefully, they will be able to go home in a few days. This year is really shaping up to be one of the worst.

So, let’s talk about better subjects. Yesterday, there was a year-end party at her school. I went to it, and Ramsey immediately wanted to get in Mommy’s car when she saw me. But I encouraged her to stay and play. We had a lunch picnic, played at the water/sand/bubble stations, and tie-dyed a shirt. Here are a couple pics I got of the festivities.

She loved adding all the colors and didn’t get any on her.
I think she liked leaving with mommy at the end the best.

I also found out the her teacher won’t be returning next year. I’m relieved. It always felt like she had a negative bend towards Ramsey, and I need Ramsey to have positivity to help get through. I met the new teacher. She seems nice. I hope Ramsey gets on well with her.

Funny story for when we were on our way home. I was stopped at a red light, and from the backseat, Ramsey kept saying “Big Ben”. I don’t know where she even learned what Big Ben is, but apparently, this looked close enough to her.

She’s so funny. I just love her.

I’m happy that she is finally getting her ABA therapy again. She seems to be getting along well with the new therapist. Of course, they are still in a bonding phase, so no demands are taking place yet. We’ll see how it goes once Ramsey has to start working for it.

Time to get back to it. Love you so much.
