We're leaving tomorrow and won't be back until Saturday - heading out west to Rapid City so Cory can attend a counseling conference. As usual, I will keeping Accalia entertained during the day. Sometimes that's not the funnest thing when you're in the confines of a hotel room, but we don't plan to be there too much. Accalia's so excited about swimming in the pool. Hopefully Cole will like it, too, or else our pool time will be severely limited to when Cory is around. I'm planning on taking the kids to Dinosaur Park, which is basically just a small stop on a hillside with half a dozen or so huge concrete replicas of dinosaurs. Accalia and I went there when she was about 1 1/2 and it freaked her out a bit. This time I have a feeling she'll be more excited.

The most exciting thing that has happen this week is that I was offered the position of Coordinator of Leader Accreditation for the Minnesota and Dakotas area of La Leche League. That's moving on up from the Associate Coordinator position. I'm excited about it because it means more contact with the area council and department heads. I think it will definitely be challenging at times to balance these responsibilities with the kids and the house. "Don't worry, Mama" is what Accalia would say. She says that a lot. I wonder where she picked that up. I don't say that very often. I'll have to pay really close attention to make sure I really don't!

I'll write more when we return!
