Grand Knights for Singing

We each took a turn battling a virus over Spring Break. Jason and Gigi eked out a canoe outing on Simpson Lake just before the return of the school schedule and she got to hang out for a fun day with a friend so vacation wasn't a complete bust. The lake adventure concluded with G and her 4 day old learner's permit driving my van home in the dark with boat trailer attached and parked it in the garage unscathed. 

Health improved during Holy Week and the whole family was well by Easter Sunday. The adult egg hunt with prize table is here to stay. 

This latest illness seems to have set me back a bit on what had been pretty well controlled POTS symptoms. I'm combatting it with soprano breathing, potato chips, and Spanx but have also been approved for the PT/cardio lab for monitored recumbant therapy to try to sneak up on my nervous system to retrain it not to freak out about gravity. 

Jason attended Gigi's choir concert where she had a solo while I witnessed Ben inducted as a Knight of Columbus. Ursuline's choir went on to win first place at their Six Flags competition. She and her friends attended the quilt show downtown.  

We had a bloody fish slapping good time at Vianney's Spamalot being scandalously entertained. Gigi was the taunter's assistant, Frenchie and Minstrel. Before her curtain call flowers had faded she'd already been cast in her next musical, her first alongside her dad. 

Our yard is booming with blooms by the by. This has been a terrible year for Iris, but the ones on the lee side of our house are thriving. I'm not up to my usual long walks, so I'm consoled by daily flower peeps and working from my porch rocking chair.

Hey y'all, this is Gigi just telling you to embrace the whimsy, there are many ways to do this. Me and my friends went on a picnic and danced in the rain, or you can just go outside. #WhimsyRevolution #GrassIsFun #Nature4Eva
