The girls were thrilled to have Uncle Little BIL show up unexpectedly at school. The entire thing was worth it when I saw the look on Niece E's face. She's 10 & was heart broken when he left for South Korea. Yesterday she was walking down the hall at school when I said, "Hey, E, you're riding home with us today." "I am?" "Yeah, because I brought someone with me." That's when she saw him. Her entire face lit up. She just stood there grinning at him until he asked for a hug. Then she kind of jumped at him. It was precious!
The other two were excited too, but since both BabyGirl & Neice T were so young when he left, they were a little more reserved. My boys took to him with no problem. I wondered about B.B. since he was only about 19 months old when Little BIL left. There was no need to worry as all day yesterday all I heard was, "Tum here, Uncle BIL. Pway tars wiff me, Uncle BIL. Wanna' see Mommy's bafroom, Uncle BIL? Dat's your picture, Uncle BIL!" He's coming back to play again today.
I picked BabyGirl up from school on Wednesday so we could go visit with Busha & Bucka. As we were walking out to the van she said, "Mom. Trevor wrote me two notes today." Really. Were they love notes? "Yeah, but I threw them away because I've had about enough of that."
We've sold one more puppy. That leaves three left to be sold. I'm keeping my fingers crossed!
Bitsy and #1 Son are both on sleeping strikes. This has to stop soon or I may have to check myself into rehab to treat exhaustion...oh, no, wait, I'm not a Hollywood "it girl." I'll just have to deal with it.

That is so lovely. I have a lump in my throat right now ! S
Tell BIL I said hello. To bad our vists could match up. I miss him too. But I'm not sure He wants me to jump on him and hug him the next time I see him. Oh yeah and tell him I'm proud of him. :)
