August 19, 2018:  The parties are over and all my friends have gone back home. My friend Stacy spent the night, but she had to get home to her family. We had a lot to do today to clean up from all mommy’s parties and pack up for the cottage. We tried to enjoy some “normal” time in between though. We painted, delivered extra cake to our neighbors, and mommy mowed the lawn while we cheered her on from the pool. Tomorrow we head up north! I can’t wait to see grandma and grampa and show Finley the cottage!
