My shift began quite early today as E joined K on the 6:30 AM ferry to the city. While e was actually still asleep when they left the house, she woke about 6:30. So we ate breakfast, Skyped with my dad, then took a walk along the lagoon to Safeway (we needed more blueberries). After a snack of cheese and crackers we drove down to the church. I remembered to take the stroller this time, but I guess she was tired of being confined and began to fuss. So I only practiced a few minutes before I put her on my lap and let her play the organ. I thought that practice might be hard this week, so I planned ahead and chose easy pieces. When we arrived and stopped by the office, she teared up and cried when the office manager greeted her, but as we were leaving she held up her arms so Jessica would pick her up. On the way home we stopped at Trader Joe's for a few things, and I saw another example of "stranger danger" reaction when I pushed the cart up to the check out counter and was out of E's sight for a moment. She started to cry, then saw me and was OK. The checker gave her some stickers that we enjoyed playing with at home.
After lunch she took a long nap, then we played a bit till my student arrived, at which point Randy took her outside to walk around the neighborhood. They chatted with several people, checked the mailbox, blew bubbles. E and K caught the 5:30 ferry and arrived home about 6:15.
