Home for a week...

Eliza gets to spend the week at home, as my employer has once again asked me to participate in their "work reduction program." Ah, journalism.

This means that we're sitting on the couch, watching soccer because it's on and occasionally playing with sidewalk chalk. Well, she's playing with sidewalk chalk, I'm cleaning house and doing laundry.

It's strange, being at home on a weekday. No matter how many times it's happened, it doesn't feel normal to be at home and not at work on a non-holiday.

We're taking a Father's Day trip to Cedar Point, which is one of the places I've had on my list of places to visit for years. Excited about that trip.

Eliza is getting taller and smarter. She talks in short sentences a lot, she knows most of her body parts and we're learning colors and shapes. Also, because she's my daughter, she loves chicken nuggets. I do mean loves. The child freaks out when she sees me take them out of the freezer.

On a sadder note, Janie, Eliza and I want to express our condolences to the Koch family and all the Holiday World staff on the death of Will Koch. We met him briefly on our first trip to Holiday World, and even though we exchanged just a few words, it really made our day to know that the company president was concerned about us having a good trip.
