Signs of the Times

Easter decorating
Uncle Merrick played x-box football while his niece and nephew helped Nana decorate. Liana and Camilla even willingly abdicated this task.
Times, they are a changin'.


Anne of Green Gables
The older girls (Brietta, Carina, and Louissa) excitedly blanketed themselves with fleece covers and snuggled on couches to watch this all-time favorite. Liana and Camilla, vaguely familiar with this oft quoted movie, wandered to and from the room (well, eventually Camilla joined in and was even caught tenderly sighing, "Oh... I love Matthew...")
Times, they are a changin'.

Hosting
Mom is too tired to stay up to greet an overnight guest but has absolute confidence that her girls (and the other add-ons) will help this guest get fed and settled in an appropriate manner. They are quite able to do so.
Times, they are a changin'.
Hairdos
I used to do lots of little girls' hair. Now they do mine.
Times, they are a changin'.

Rick's Birthday
I once was responsible for planning this celebration. This year, Carina is planning and hosting the event.
Times, they are a changin'.

That's the way it always goes, so they say. I'm discovering that they are right.
