Now for the bad news: We had to part with some more things of high emotional value today, but the bright side to this bad news is that they're all going to the homes of some wonderful people. Our first stop today was to my dear friend Marissa's house to drop off our beloved (well, Audrey's beloved) fish, Molly. Audrey's had quite a hard time dealing with the fact that Molly will not be moving overseas with us, so we arranged for Molly (full name: Molly Gem Smith, who is actually a male betta fish...but who's asking anyway) to be adopted by her sweet little friend Rynnie. Audrey's at peace knowing that her fish is with a fellow princess and I'm just glad that Marissa won't be able to go a day without seeing the fish and thinking about me...especially when the tank needs a good cleaning! Here's Rynnie bonding with her new fish! Isn't she a beauty?!
Our second stop today was to the home of the funniest couple we know. I met Riquesha two and a half years ago on Audrey's first day of dance class with Miss Nicole. While I knew she was a little wacky and definitely had a few screws loose, I was charmed. A six year-old, a one year-old, and twin boys on the way--all while juggling a full time job...this lady can do it all. It was a little sad disassembling the crib that Audrey and Dorian both spent the first couple years of their lives sleeping in, but I was more than happy to send it off to the Evins family and keep that bed filled with awesome babies. Here are Quick and Riquesha (and Riquesha's stomach)!
And here is Audrey having an impromptu playdate with Ori. I love these girls!
I guess if you take bad news and add great friends to the equation, you end up with good times anyway. I'll take it!
