Roby was off with Grandma and Auntie & Uncle today while I took a class and mom worked. I’m glad that they had the time together, it sounds like it was really nice. They went to Shelburne farms and Roby got a t-shirt and a hat and rode on a tractor and ate part of a cookie. She was scared of the tractor but then she got brave and rode it without being held, brave girl.

Even that three hour class, that one saturday morning was a horrible thing to miss. Every second with Roby is a treasure and it’s tough to share, even though it’s good for her and it’s good for the family. They all like her too, after all. Smart folks my family. 

It feels nice that the reason I wasn’t at Shelburne farms with her and with my family was because I was working on getting my license to do a project that means basically spending all of my time with Roby, on a farm, on my farm.
