Rory Update #11

Our First Night Out!

Colleen and I snuck off and left Rory for an evening. It was the first time we have both been away from her in her ENTIRE LIFE!
Some folks tsk, tsk us for getting out so soon (one reported not having left their tyke alone yet and it has been a year!) and others say that have been doing it regularly. We (I) felt it was time. Though Colleen was a bit nervous about it.

Now, you may think we plunked her down on her chair and handed her the remote and a bag of chips. But no, we left her with Carlene. She's a teacher. She should be good with kids. And so, when we got back we found out they went for a walk. "Good", you say, "exercise and fresh air." But she took her to the LIQUOR STORE!!!!! To get a six pack. Thank goodness she had the presence of mind to not drink them while waiting for us to come home.

So, Colleen and I went for a very civilized dinner out, a nice wine, pizza and pasta. Yum. And we talked about Rory the entire time.
