Go, go, go.

Today was pretty busy. Theo and I drove to Cambridge in the sleety rain to visit with Karen, Brian and Baby Henry. And then after Gus went to bed we headed to Westwood to visit with Debby. Delia was asleep in bed and poor Mike was sick in bed. It was so nice to catch up and made me really miss Boston.

"Where are we off to now?"

Gus went out to lunch with Grammy and Grandpa. When he got back he ran into the house saying, "Mummy, Mummy, I ate fish and chips and made it go all done gone!" It felt so strange hearing him tell me about something he did without me around. Sure, he has been going out without me, mostly with Jonathan, but sometimes with Grammy and Grandpa or Grandma and PopPop, but he has not been able to communicate what happened without me until now. I always get filled in but when Gus tells me in his own words it just makes me really aware of the fact that he is his own little person and will have experiences without me. Gus has a life without me? Not possible!

Grammy still filled me in on more happenings. The funniest was when the waitress came to clear the table. When she took Gus's plate he cried, "Don't take Gussys's food!" He was very upset.
