Happy Wednesday, Phoebe!
Sorry for the missed post yesterday, I know that you know it doesn’t mean it’s not important, just that it’s time consuming, and other things come up. :)
Thanks for asking Mom if I could pick you up from school yesterday. I know we didn’t do anything exciting, but, I’m always happy to hang out and spend time together, even if it’s just sitting around chatting. Sorry that we didn’t get food or coffee, but we need to start adjusting to the reality that we can’t do that every time, which is a big part of why we didn’t. I’m trying to knock out Christmas early, and it means we need to manage finances carefully.
It was too late to message you after we’d gotten off of the phone, but I talked to Aunt Danielle last night, for a little more than two hours. We got caught up, and I pitched the Thanksgiving idea. She seemed really disappointed that Uncle Derek didn’t want to come, but, I might talk to him again, and see if maybe I can sway the tides, and mayyyybe even have everyone all together at once. It’s a long shot, but not entirely impossible. She’s going to talk to Toby, and see if they’re up for any type of Thanksgiving gathering. We’ll have to toy with dates, and make sure we work in something for Charlie’s birthday, even if it isn’t ON Thanksgiving. This whole thing is going to take a LOT of planning, driving, money, and effort, so try to be patient, and bear with me. We’ll need to discuss, as a family, whether or not we want to try to swing by Christy’s for a quick visit, and where we’re going to try to stay once we get to CA. I don’t THINK Nanny will have any interest in seeing me, but, I would like to try, if y’all think it’s a possibility. I’m less interested in seeing Nanny than Granddan, but still.
Anyway, I hope that you have an awesome day at school, let me know if you want me to pick you up from school again, I can’t promise food, but maybe we can go grab coffee or something? Have an awesome day, I miss and love you a whole, whole bunch!
Love,
-Dad
