All alone this CRAZY week

M had to go to New York this week. Some ways it was good that it was this week and others ways it was bad. Bad because it is always more exhausting when she is gone. I am amazed by the amount of energy that single parents have. One week is about all I can handle until I am ready to break. Good that it is this week because we have so much stuff to do this week that it will be easier for the girls. We are going to the Children's Museum, Aquarium, open house at the new school, doctors appointment (which is at 8.30 because I thought that M would take them, boy did that not work out as planned) and a test at Harvard. So it is a full week ahead of us. I think that Saturday will be M's day with the kids.

Femåring på Harvard

I lördags började Nova på vad vi trodde var en konstkurs på Harvard. Det visade sig under lördagens gång röra sig om en musikkurs. Nova tror fortfarande att hon ska få börja måla tavlor snart. Jag vet inte hur vi lyckades missförstå så totalt. Hursomhelst har jag nu en femåring som går på Harvard - även om det bara är 45 minuter i veckan i åtta veckor, och även fast det rör sig om ett experiment som utförs av psykologiska institutionen för att se hur musikkursen påverkar femåringars kognitiva utveckling.
