On Saturday Ooma and I traveled to CT (just an hour from Worcester) to visit with Ooma’s son Jeffrey, his wife Sarah and their family. I was eager to meet the people that I had heard so much about. I was not disappointed. It was a wonderful day – in perfect weather – with a wonderful family.
Jeffrey cooked bratwurst and hot dogs for us on arrival and tacos before departure, so we were well fed. We also got a tour of their home – an 18th-century gem with lots of nooks and crannies, which I love – and lots of time to get to know the kids. It was Ooma’s introduction to the newborn and a chance to marvel at how much the other 3 had grown since her last visit. The two youngest ones were not yet old enough to talk, but the two oldest girls had plenty to say. And do.
Sophia Bella, who has a late fall birthday, decided that she wanted a summer birthday instead, so we had an “Alice in Wonderland” birthday for her.
I enjoyed every minute. Thank you, Jeffrey and Sarah, for making me feel so welcome. And thank you, Sophia Bella and Farren, for keeping me entertained.
Ooma would like me to point out that the Cheetos gift to Dennis was a request from his parents – his favorite “treat” food, apparently.
