Hay and Dad

Haley did great seeing Dad today. In fact, after about 10 minutes of us being there and getting ready to go, she said she didn't want to leave yet. She just liked being there with him and us. It was sweet.

Yay Hay!

It's a Haley update!

Haley's in 2nd grade now and things are moving along nicely. No strike this year, no death in the family, so far so good.

Today we're going to go see Dad for the 1 year anniversary of his death. Haley knows about it but I don't think she knows today is the day. She still has a hard time talking about her grandfather's passing. She won't let us put a picture of him and her in her room because it makes her sad.

I think she's having a good time at school. Her friend Helen is in her class and they are a very good match for each other. It's a lot of fun being here to talk about what she's learned for the day (as opposed to when I'm working and don't see her until dinner time). She still has her moody moments, but we're working with a counselor to try to make our avenues of communication better.

I perused through this blog for a few minutes and realized that I hadn't posted much at all for her, so I hope to be able to remedy that in the future.
