Good morning and happy Friday!

We have a special visitor in town with us this week.

It’s wild to me that this is the first time Katie is meeting Ishu. The world shut down two weeks before I was set to leave on maternity leave. So the last time I saw Katie was before Ishu popped out into the world.

Katie was my internship supervisor while I was at KIPP and she’s probably the person I spent most of my time with while pregnant with Ishu. Since Ankur was out doing audition rotations that year and I spent most of my time at work, I wouldn’t be surprised if Ishu had some sort of connection with Katie, simply from hearing her voice so dang much while he was in utero. Ha.

I mean, he did connect with her pretty quickly. Whether that’s because of her voice or because she dances to the dinosaur songs with him, who’s to say?

But it’s so nice getting this quality time in with her this week and I’m so happy she booked a trip to come visit us.

Yesterday the two of us went to brunch at Wildberry. And then popped in to see the Cultural Center and then the Art Institute.

In the evening, we picked up Ishu and went to Lake Shore Park for Music in the Park!

On the agenda today is the Architecture Tour and maybe some Navy Pier stuff.

The forecast originally made it seem like it was going to rain all week long, but Katie brought the sunshine with her!

Hope you all have a happy Friday and a happy weekend!
