It was a good weekend. Our extended family expanded by one on Friday when my sister-in-law gave birth to a beautiful baby boy making me an aunt, my husband an uncle and our kids cousins for the very first time. On Saturday we went with our oldest to the University for "Preview Day," giving her an idea about directions to take at college. It was a really informative and fun time. And yesterday we all went to a Brazillian rodizio and ate way entirely too much food and had a fabulous amount of fun together.

And her Biotech grade is up. Hooray! Things really are looking so much better these days. She gets pouty and bitchy and moody - so do I - but it's not a crisis. She's not cutting. She's not toking. It's all still good. She even lets an occassional "I love you" slip out my direction. It's nice to have my daughter back, even just a little bit.
