Goings On

When you have a bunch of kids that are somehow attached to you, there is always someone coming or going.  Or something either wonderful or catastrophic going on.

Today at our house we have had a court case won.  Yippee!  My son had a little incident with the law back one weekend when I was away with another child at a soccer tournament and Leo was away working.  The rule was no parties.  We just forgot to tell all the other kids in town.  So about 200 kids dropped by.  Uninvited.  Noisy.  They didn’t all get in the house of course – thank goodness!  The cops came and the kids who were outside left.  But they came back so our son called the cops again.  This time he was charged with violating the noise bylaw.  He felt this was wrong since he was the one who called the police; so chose to go to court and fight the charges.  Today was the third attempt to get the case heard.  And the charges were dropped.

And tonight – we have a coming , a homecoming.  Patrick returns from the Congo.  Hope he has had enough of the hot tropics cause boy is he in for some cold!
