Today is my husband's birthday. I'm so thankful for him. He was a "stealth twin" and no one knew he was on the way, since back in 1974 they didn't do routine sonograms during pregnancy. His identical brother was born first without issue, but then when the surprise baby made his entrance, there were complications that resulted in him having cerebral palsy on his right side. He underwent several surgeries on his right eye and right leg during his childhood. 

 

In spite of this, he is the most positive person I know, not self-conscious at all. He has adapted to every situation, even learning to bathe and diaper our baby with one hand. I am so proud of him and so grateful that I get to share life with him. ❤️

 

Happy Birthday! What a great inspiring story!

I want to thank you all for your kind words of support.  It certainly means a lot.  
 

Susan is with the grandkids this afternoon (eating ice cream, I hear) while I drove my daughter the 1.5 hours to the hospital for her appointment this afternoon.  
 

So while I am waiting, here is some food porn from last Thursday.  The grandkids had been to the Apple Castle to pick apples, and they wanted to make an apple pie.  They did everything themselves, other than cut the apples.  Granddaughter is still slow and steady with her knife skills.

The pie turned out so good, that I didn’t get a chance for a picture, before this much was gone.

Bethany, wishing your DH many happy returns 🌹

 

@Ocean Boy,

 

We’re in Cyprus, in a hotel originally booked 3 years ago, to celebrate my DH’s 70 b’day (for May 2020… ). Made another attempt for August 2020… Now, 3rd time is actually a charm, since the grandkids are older and we’re looking forward to this trip, so much so that the little one refused to bath yesterday, saying: “I’ll bath in Cyprus” 😜

 

It was a long day of travel. First impression — the hotel looks amazing. We just checked in and went straight to dinner.

 

As always, I have trouble posting from my mobile, so only the pics will come from there.

 

@h20skibum, Mark, so glad to see your posting. I hope it takes a bit of all you have in mind right now. My thoughts are with you & Co.

So happy to hear you made it there safely.   You make me jealous being in Cyprus.  I am so excited to see pictures from there.  I like going to the 360 cities website and viewing the 360 pictures of Cyprus.  The water there is beautiful.   I hope you both have a fun safe time.

Yay no pre-cruise testing for our upcoming cruises in September and October.

I got an email today with the new requirements. Pretty good as long as Canada and Bermuda are not in the picture.

This should reduce some stress.  Now if the airlines could get it together it should be about stress free.

One thing I don't understand is when they make these changes why do they fell like they need to wait a couple weeks before activating them.
