Yesterday after work the boys wanted to show us some street art downtown they had come across, so mom and I drove and the boys biked. We wandered the alleys looking at all the artwork, while mom excitedly gathered her feathers. She loves feathers. I think we should do feather bouquets instead or flowers in her room.

By the time we left she had a pocket full of rather dirty pigeon feathers (that ended up in the garbage.) I’ll have to head to Michels to replace them with ones that won’t be flea infested. We walked around WeeBees toy store, which was fantastic. Then JoAnn met us with pizza when we got home. We talked for quite a while as usual.

Today we hit the farmers market again, for probably the last time this year. Ate lunch there, and watched the boys run around for a few hours.

I talked to Dad, and I think we are going to make plans to go down to his place on Thanksgiving. I just can’t shake the feeling that I need to spend as much time with family as possible. I feel like time is slipping by so fast. I want mom to experience as much as she can remember now. Anyone else feel this way?
