Another fantastic day! I'm tired though. I took mom and Martyn up to visit with Walt and Mary Jane at their home. I figured mom would enjoy the drive up for one thing, but also the chance to visit with them, in a more intimate setting. I was right.
Mom and I went to church first, and that was nice. Then we came home and packed up a little, and headed up the Gorge. It was beautiful outside again...we had been wondering if we were going to get two nice days in a row and we did! It was just a lovely drive up. Mom and I had good conversation, and she tried taking pictures....which makes me smile.
When we got there, it was almost lunch time and Mary Jane had made some wonderful curry....it was mom's first time having curry and she liked it. I thought she might. We all sat around and visited, and took turns playing with Martyn after lunch.
Later, Walt, Mom and I went for a walk up to the spring, and Mary Jane stayed home with Martyn. Walt chatted mom up the whole time, it was cool. The weather was fantastic, over cast but a little humid and sultry....which kind of threw me for a loop. In the forest however, it was nice and cool, and sweet smelling, and I loved it...Mom enjoyed it too.
When we came back to the house, we had some strawberry rhubarb pie and ice cream. Mary Jane was sitting on the floor with Martyn. He was sitting on the floor, facing towards her leg and he would lean over and pretend bite her leg and then sit up and look at her really fast....she would carry on and make a big fuss, and say "oh the baby is getting me!" or "oh the baby got me!" Martyn totally understood that him "pretending" to bite her let, would get that response from her....he understood the playing. It was soo stinking cute, and funny, but mostly just amazing to see his comprehension. He just amazes me more everyday.
