Yesterday Ben went to his first day of Mothers Day Out. He had a great time and seems to really like his teacher and class. I hope that when he asks for the car keys next week he’s not expecting gas money to come along with them.

Last night Amy and I went to a farewell party for a coworker of mine. Grant is headed to our London office for at least 6 months. Farewell Grant, we will miss you tons.

Heather said this would happen, and sure enough it did. Our new Roomba showed up yesterday and Amy and I must have spent half an hour just watching it work around the house. Crazy. This thing is awesome. It fairly accurately detects dirtier spots and circles over and over it until it’s clean. We’ll see how well it performs over the next few weeks though.

In case you haven’t figured it out yet, my wife is an incredible photographer and an amazing artist. As a testament to this fact, last week the Boerne Star released their 2006 “Best of the Best” awards for Kendall County and right there as the #2 photographer in the entire county … Shutter-Happy Photography.

I have to say that I am so proud of her and the work she is doing. In the last few years she has turned a hobby into a thriving business that is keeping her very, very busy. I can’t wait to see how much this business will keep on growing, especially considering the extra attention it’s about to receive. Later this month Ben will start attending a Mothers Day Out program 2 days a week. That should give Amy a bit of extra time with her clients and he is very excited about “going to school”. We are planning a major home renovation project for later this year that will give the entire garage over to Amy for a studio and office. I am also planning out a new dedicated phone system for the business that will be able to tie in Amy’s assistant (my sister, Jennifer) to enhance the communication system of the business. Big changes, stay tuned.
