Day 159: Groceries! and Speech

Posted on | February 7, 2008 |

We started the day with a speech therapy session for The Son — $60.00. Therapy is still going well and The Son has now completed two recipe reviews (though the second one took him two weeks and still needs a bit of polish). This week’s assignment is to write a paper on celebrity political endorsements. I think he’ll have fun with that topic.

After speech, The Son shoveled snow while I prepared grocery lists. The Husband always does a terrific job of carrying on with the children and their activities whenever I’m out of town but he’s not quite as good about keeping up with the household chores like the kitchen, laundry, or keeping the fridge well-stocked
