April

It turns out it was a good thing I didn’t schedule a KinderCycle swap in April!  Here’s some of what happened:

• We celebrated the Jewish holiday of Passover!  It was a good eight days other than when Star threw up at a Seder on another family’s picnic blanket.
• Star got Hand Foot and Mouth Disease (Coxsackie).  I have pictures, but I decided that it’s not necessary to post them.
• I got word that an article of mine will be published in a law librarian magazine in July.  Yippeee, but now I have to polish the article quite a bit.
• We went to DC for a Bar Mitzvah and to see family.  Star had a great time playing with her cousins.  Luckily, her hand, foot and mouth disease had cleared up by then.  Here’s a picture of Star (in a top that I sewed for her!) looking up at her cousin who is reading to her.
• Somehow, I messed up my deltoid muscles – not sure how that happened – but I had major pain in my arms and visited my friendly chiropractor who somehow fixed it all.  If anyone needs a chiro recommendation, let me know.
• Star turned 2.
• I turned 41.

Now it’s May, and I’m turning my attention to the next swap!  Mark your calendars for the MORNING of May 20th.  More details are over at the website.
