M HAS HER DRIVER'S LICENSE! She got it yesterday. She did great on the driving test – very calm, smooth and no mistakes. The guy who administered the test was very kind and the whole thing went very well. 

Tonight M and A left the house together ALONE without us to surprise Leo for his birthday. Definitely nerve wracking to see them go. 

Tonight was also the first night of the Sexual Assault Summit, which M is an organizer of. Daddy and I tuned in to the parent track. It was very well done and very informative, like last year. I had some work distractions during the event tonight but the parts I heard were great. Tomorrow is the second half.

Sadie is likely being adopted on Sunday, unless the meet and greet doesn't go well. I hope she is calm for the meet and great! Like she is here (we call this "kerplop"):

Meanwhile, here is another aspect of life with Sadie:

Sigh.
