#vengelet

The 2019 update - I’m still here! I so rarely post anymore, that I figured I’d update and then go back to lurking for several more months. I always have Tumblr running in the background while I’m at work, so I’m listening and liking posts, even if I’m not making new ones of my own. But just in case anyone’s interested here’s what’s happening in the House of Vengeance.

Me - I don’t often get to to do special cakes anymore - mostly our own kids birthdays. But I did get to do one for my daycare lady’s oldest daughter last month, so it felt really good to flex those skills. Hopefully, as my kids get older I can do more of that. I DID get to participate in our local farmer’s market with a variety of baked goods, and I’ll be going back to that this April. Vengelet even got to sell perler bead magnets!

Wifey - Still amazing, still teaching, still being an amazing wife and mother. She got back into her chorus this year, so that’s a good outlet for her musicality.

Vengelet - Vengelet is an amazing seven years old. She struggled through first grade, but is absolutely crushing second. She loves reading, video games, arts and crafts, being funny, and her younger sister - most of time.

Vengelodon - Vengelodon is two, with all that entails. She’s having a rough go of it, as many two year olds do, but she also has a bit of a speech delay, which makes everything that much harder. She’s been making tons of progress though, and she gets to go to preschool in the fall, which will be a rough transition, but one that will be so good for her. Her personality is really starting to come out, and she is going to be a force to be reckoned with as she gets older.

Zoe the wondercat - This was the hardest part of last year. We had to put Zoe down in September after a very short, but very hard fight with what we assume was cancer. She was such a wonderful sweet cat, and it feels cruel that we got such a short time with her and her brother, Ike, but they were truly amazing pets, whom we’ll always remember.
