SUNDAY JUNE 4

Sunday was really great. Laid back with swimming, eating, playing with the kids and planning our summer.

MONDAY JUNE 5 This was another good day. The only thing that was different was at 2pm Megan, Serena, Daniela and I went to Carlson’s office where we meet with Carl. Carl took us to a room with a mat on the floor, 4 hanging bags and 4 lockers. He said we would have boxing classes Monday, Wednesday and Friday. He said they had decided to build a gym for everyone. He had Gloves for each one of us, put them on us and got us started hitting the bags. He paired Megan and Serena together and said Daniela and me together. It was all exciting.

TUESDAY JUNE 6 At 2pm we went to Carlson’s office again and Mike was there. He said Mike was going to teach us kick boxing on Tuesdays and Thursdays but had decided that was not a good idea at this time. He looked at me several times and I knew he was thinking about me being pregnant. He said Mike was going to teach a self-defense class. That we would be Mike’s test group to teach more classes in the future. We thought all of this was great. Mike took us to the gym room with the mat. He gave us a talk about self-awareness and show us some moves. He said when this class ended we would be taking a test on what we learned before we moved on to the next class.

WEDNESDAY JUNE 7 This was another great day and the four of us were very excited to have the new classes.

THURSAY JUNE 8 and FRIDAY JUNE 9 These two days were great also. Daniela’s boys had the last day of school on Friday and would be going to the classes with us. I was starting to miss Matthew again. Mom said Matthew and Jean would be coming home for a day or two and then leaving again on a business trip. And then they would be back in time for Daniela’s wedding. Friday night when my head hit the pillow I was thinking how great the week had been and the only thing that could have made it better was having Matthew home.
