First time down the tunnel slide!
Beach day

Fun in the sand
Here comes the water!

My appetite is coming back!
Funny story: Jane swiped my phone today when we were out for a walk, and before I knew it, she had texted Julia Child a photo of herself with the message “Raw.” Ha! (I apparently have Julia Child in my contacts list from the mid 90s when I was a fact checker—and she was still alive!) Wonder where that text ended up!

Life lesson: When one’s nap is only 45 minutes, one will be tired enough by the end of the day to try to sleep on a dining room chair
Back in action, with a spring in her step!

I’m feeling much better, thanks!
At last: back with Raggedy and my favorite book after a trip to the mean doctor
“How I Feel” by Jane Artukovich, markers on paper (sick-day art project)
In pretty good spirits for a sick little gal (she was actually smiling more than it looks like when I took this—I told her to pretend she was sleeping so I could take a picture)
