Day 1915. I lay back down after Randy left with the kids to take them to kindergarten. At 10:30 my alarm went off, as I had a 11 am student. After I was done teaching, Randy left to go get Sammy and came home 45 minutes later. Then he left again to go get the other two kids. Sammy and I had a good time together.

At 2 pm Caritas helper Christine arrived and went downstairs with Sammy. 15 minutes later Randy and the kids came home, and the kids went downstairs to play with Christine. I had a student at 2:30. Randy took advantage of Christine being there to take a nap.

After I was done teaching at 3:20 pm, I went downstairs to do piano practice with the kids. Then I returned upstairs for my 4 pm student. I taught until 6 pm. Randy and Sammy left at 4:30 pm to go to his wheelchair class. Christine left at 6 pm, so I still got to talk to her for a few minutes, while I was making the kids' dinner.

The kids were eating, and once Sammy came home at 7:15 pm, he ate as well. Then they all went into the bathtub, followed by our evening routine.

This morning I had no commitments, so I went back to bed after Randy left with the kids to take them to kindergarten. It was 11 am before I got up. I then made warmed up the rest of the soup for Randy and me. Randy took the 12:30 pm bus to go pick up Tammy and Emmy and take them to their tennis class from 2 to 3 pm. I left home at 12:40 to go pick up Sammy.

Sammy was surprised and happy to see me, when I walked in. But he then asked where Daddy was and I told him. We then went home, where we had fun together. I was trying to get some work done, while playing with Sammy and taking care of him. We called Daddy once. At 4 pm I had my student who is always late, so it worked out perfeclty. Randy and the kids returned home at 4:10 pm, and a few minutes later I started teaching.

Randy took the kids downstairs to play with them, while I was teaching until 6 pm. Then I started making their dinner, and they came upstairs to eat. After they had eaten, they went into the bathtub, then they put their pj's. They hadn't practiced piano today, so we went downstairs to do just that. Back upstairs, I read them a story, then they brushed their teeth and went to bed. I returned to my computer to teach until 9 pm, then I went to the kitchen to get something to eat.
