My Mother’s Day weekend started Friday at 2:00 pm when I got a call from Evelyn’s school nurse saying Evelyn was a close contact of another child with covid on the bus. So I call Nate, call my mom, pick up Evelyn and then pick up Jameson. But as long as she is symptom free she can return to school on the 17th, so just one week of remote learning.
Saturday I was able to go for a run and then help with tennis lessons since Jameson did not want to go without Evelyn. We compromised and Jameson participated in lessons while Evelyn and I had our own lesson on the far court away from everyone else. Knowing the weather was not looking nice for Sunday, we drove out to a new nature preserve to hike and look for waterfalls.
We followed a little creek and found the first waterfall.
Then we found the Salamonie river and the second waterfall.
Not as exciting as the first but we were able to climb right up to it.
Further along the river trail we discovered the third waterfall. Evelyn was throughly disappointed in this one, but overall they both loved the hike. There were logs to climb over, big hills to go up and down, and lots of beautiful wildflowers.
Sunday was a very nice day despite being rainy and discovering a problem with our water heater. Jameson gave me chocolates and Evelyn wanted to give me flowers, so Jameson picked out for her (since she’s quarantined) two very pretty plants for outside.
