Our Easter
Posted in: Family
My friend, Olinda, came out to visit us yesterday. It was so much fun! She brought out these cookies, brownies, chocolate Easter eggs, and coconut bunnies. Then I made a yummy roast beef covered with breadcrumbs, garlic and herb crust, roasted potatoes, and brussel sprouts. Mmmm….yummmmmm! The most wonderful wonderful part was before I cooked and while I cooked she cleaned up my kitchen. CLEANED MY KITCHEN!! So sweet I could cry. And then after dinner she helped me go through my closet and clean out stuff I no longer wear. I’ve been wanting to do that for ages and she came over and I didn’t even need to ask and she did all that!!! Nobody has ever come over and helped me clean before!! It’s the sweetest thing ever. She’s such a sweetheart!
Oh I forgot to mention, the wonderful end to our day. Isabelle went to sleep at a more regular time. She was asleep before 9pm and stayed asleep the whole night!

When Trixie and WaWa came to visit just two weeks after Finwe was born, Trixie cleaned my kitchen.
That is a friend indeed. I’m glad you have one who will help you do those things. That’s just lovely.

What an incredible friend! There’s no better feeling than to have someone help you out without having to ask them. What a treasure of a day.
I *also* want to say: if you eat something with a head (cookie, chocolate bunny, gummi bear …), then the head should be the first bite - CHOMP.

I wondered if Sarabeth would remember that little bit of kindness (t-hee)! I totally love to rummage through other’s people stuff and then throw out bags of it. Maybe I should fly out and help you go through the garage!
