Easter Weekend


We had a very nice Easter weekend. Blossoms are out on all the trees. Sunday was sunny.
Peter and Betty are on one of their cross-country trips, and spent the weekend with us. It was so great to have them here.
Another special thing is that Jean was more alert while they were here than he generally is.
On Saturday, he did not know who Pete was.
Yesterday and today, he knew and recognized Pete and spoke with him a little bit. This morning, he did not know who John was, but he looked at Peter, and immediately said his name.
As he was eating, he suddenly started to speak, very softly.
First he said, "I was a little boy once." "I got into trouble a lot." He even smiled.
Who told you that you were in trouble?
"My momma."
How did you feel about it?
"That's how I learned to run."
What did your grandma do?
"She ran fast too." "That was long ago."

Scenes from our week

barbecued spareribs, mashed potatoes, baked yam with butter and maple syrup, everything pureed

Hairdresser Pat came to cut his hair. Sorry about the hot chocolate on his face. Sometimes he does not want us to wipe his face, and we have to wait.

Time to go back to bed.
