Ken came home last night without incident from his trip home for his grandmother's funeral. He learned a lot of interesting things about her life that he didn't know before, and connected with family he had not seen in many years. He said it was a wonderful celebration of her life and that he was glad he was able to go. Like his dad said "When they're 42, you mourn, when they're 92, you celebrate their life."
Ken was also able to bring home "Bobo" (aka Teddy) - a bear that he and his father had growing up. The bear is a little over 50 at this point and is just adorable. I'm calling him Bobo (for now) because Ken made reference to Mr. Burns on the Simpsons and his bear (whose name was Bobo) and how a good bear will stand the test of time (like Bobo) so for now, the name has stuck. Ken said he didn't think the bear really had his own name, but he's checking on it.
I also wanted to say thank you to everyone for keeping up on the blog. From time to time I do wonder if any one's reading it or if it is worthwhile to do - but based on the reaction Ken got at home I'll keep it up. That's it. I'll do more next week - next doctor's appointment is on the 8th and we'll be meeting with a male OB/GYN to discuss medical issues surrounding circumcision so we can make our final decision there as well. Have a wonderful weekend.
