The kids—and especially Franny—love going to the Raccoon Lodge.  We don’t go during the summer months because the outdoor seating is rather poor, and they have been very patient waiting to go.  But, with the rainy weather, tonight, they finally got the opportunity to return.  For the kids, it was a great ending to a fun and relaxed day.  With the onset of kindergarten, Franny and Cole have really missed each other.  Today, they played and laughed, and enjoyed being reunited.  Hopefully, they are also starting to rejuvenate from a very big week—just one more day and we are right back into the new routine.  Our updated schedule is extremely full and busy; I have to really concentrate on focusing on each moment and each day and not letting it all pass me by too quickly.  They are such amazing kids!
