I am a below knee amputee. More importantly, I am also Mommy to two boys, a very active 10 year old (Robby) and an mischievous toddler (Timmy). I have learned that being a parent with a disability can create some unusual and sometimes humorous situations. This blogger is available for hire!

Home

 Friday was Scott's birthday. As luck would happen, it coincided with the start of Robby's spring break. Going to pick up Robby from college to bring him home for a week was the perfect way for Scott to spend his afternoon. (This came straight from him, not me.) Having a full house was definitely the best gift we could provide, but the Washington Capitals tickets (hopefully timed for Oveckin's record goal) were a pretty close second. 

Yesterday afternoon we headed to hibachi to celebrate the start of another school break. (Finding a new hibachi restaurant was a family priority when we moved.) On our way home from lunch we discovered an amazing restaurant supply store where we scored 10 pounds of irregular sliced Kunzler bacon for $20, delighting my little bacon eater. 

This week will be awkward because Robby is on vacation while Timmy is still in school. This is the first year that their vacations do not coincide. I don't like it, but I'm going to embrace what we were given. This week Robby is home, and I'm delighted.  Now I need to go fry up some bacon.
