Sunday Evening Post

So just as our "Storm Chasers" series is over with, our first series of storms are crossing the country - they're expected to arrive for us tomorrow, but everyone has been leery of the weather, remembering what happened just three years ago one terrible night.

This morning, Madison and the rest of KidPak visited Swallow Falls with that message related to the movie "Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs."  She enjoyed it - Flint and his friends have been a theme of ours lately, as Madison just got a copy of the sequel in her Easter basket.

This afternoon, Daddy was once again at KidPak EspaƱol, which he can finally type out correctly on a keyboard.  How to do that accent mark?  Just hit "option + n" button.  And then the "n" again.  This may be one of the biggest things I've learned how to do all year.  It was a good service, one that Daddy has been helping out with a bit.  The sacrifice of time with Madison may be a little much though - we'll see how that pans out here over the next few months.  Of course, summer is approaching, and she'll be home a lot more.

Or, at least that's what I was initially thinking.  In fact, she's got about four camps back-to-back-to-back-to-back, pretty much filling up June.  That all starts June 2nd, with Summer Xtreme.  It'll be a fantastic June.

Tonight we revisited the Lego Marvel again - still have a few characters we're looking for, but by no means do we actually hope to complete the entire game.  There are some things not worth trying over and over and over to achieve.  For example, this "Frozen Free Fall" game that Madison and Daddy have been addicted to lately.  It sits on the Kindle like some sort of drug - we keep going back to it, trying to clear that next blasted level.  Over and over again - currently we're on level 53 or something like that.  Daddy and Madison crowd over this game on the Kindle, each pointing out moves to the other and watching for the next crazy combo.  The first levels were simple enough, but now we're in deeper territory that's honestly more based on luck and chance than skill.  But still we keep going back for more...!

So it was a full day again, and now we're hunkering down for the next wave of storms.  They appear to not be as bad for us here locally, so we'll pray for everyone else around the Southeast.  It was actually three years ago to this day that we had a night of terror.  May it not repeat for us again.
