Hiiiiii hi! Happy Friday! Howโ€™s the week going? I feel like this one was an absolute blur. P stayed home from school all week with her ruptured eardrum – she wasnโ€™t feeling great until Wednesday and I kept her home for yesterdayโ€™s funeral. It was a beautiful service, but felt very sad and final. Itโ€™s…
