Enjoying a Day With Cerwin’s Mother
Sunday, April 15
~~~
We began the day by joining her at the 10:00 a.m. worship service at Landis Homes, and then enjoyed a delicious lunch in the dining room.
After that we took her to visit each of our local children and grandchildren – Josiah, Jeff & Chris, Jere & Kristen, and Nate & Abby.
I didn’t think about taking pictures at Josiah’s place. I will have to do that at a later date.

The idea for this day began when we talked to Mother about going to Jeff & Chris’ farm to see the items that are being prepared for auction. (This is the farm where their friend Mary Jane lived before her death last fall.)
Before going to the house, Mother wanted to see the animals.
This guy thinks he is the ruler of the farm

After seeing the house, we went to Jere & Kristen’s house.

Jesse had just learned to ride bike without training wheels.
He is okay as long as he keeps moving, but hasn’t figured out how to stop and stay standing.
Of course Jared wanted to show us what he can do on a bike.
Ian also wanted to show us some of his bike skills.
Jesse came to talk to great-grandma.
Then he was off again.
Jared also showed us his tree-climbing skills.
Jere wanted to show Grandma the front of their house. She had not seen the large deck they built.
As we prepared to leave, Ian and Jared asked us to watch them race down the driveway.
At the end of their driveway, we met their neighbor (and ours) Farrow who was out for a Sunday afternoon ride.
Our next stop was Nathaniel and Abby’s house. Mother had never been to their apartment.
By late afternoon we were back at Landis Homes, and while Cerwin helped mother to the door, I enjoyed the beautiful blossoms in the parking lot.
It looks like these Amish young people are going to a party of some sort because they are carrying gift bags.

Cerwin’s Mother is still talking about how much she enjoyed the afternoon.
