Donuts with Dillan. Atwater for his eye exam, 20/20 right eye, 20/25 left eye, improvement! CVS to get Lesa Valentine stuff, Dillan chose. We picked everyone else up, headed back to Bloomington for ice skating. Horrible, horrible kids today! No one to watch them so no dinner out.

Bruce and Dwyane Valentine’s Day party at daycare, Dwyane had another at preschool. Rough day at work, didn’t feel well. Warm enough for kids to play outside; didn’t stay out for long. Bruce stole entire loaf of bread, hid in bedroom, ate it with Dwyane’s help! Homework, reading.

An ordinary day; colder, but sunny. Last night about 2:00a Ashley woke up, called for Lesa, said she felt sick but didn’t get sick, fell back asleep, and said she was fine this morning. Dillan got speech evaluation that indicated he improved; we tend to agree. A pleasant evening.
