This is my sister "C" & her daughter "R" tuckered out after a LONG day of visiting various local family members. This was taken in my "C's" bedroom formally belonging to my "E's" bedroom.

This is my oldest nephew "S". He is borderline Autistic but has improved greatly since entering school. He handled the changes in his routine & environment better than I'd expected.

This is my nephew "I" & my very own "E" in front of my house. We were waiting for my sister & the other 2 kids to come outside so we could walk to a nearby park.

We had a nice visit. My sister & I got to talk almost nightly after the kids went to bed. We polished off a bottle of Strawberry flavored white zin a couple of nights....it's a luxury we don't normally get to afford ourselves. The last night here, she bathed all four kids while I finished, sorted & folded all of her laundry. The while she got her kids down for the night & packed the carry-on's I crammed the rest of her stuff into one suitcase. I rolled, stuffed, jammed & crammed her suitcase full of toys, books, shoes & clothes. Since she had to leave by 4:30 am to catch her flight to St. Louis, we packed everything into her rental with the exception of HER carry-on backpack. I woke up to see her off, help her with the kids & kiss them all good-bye. I REALLY miss her & wish she didn't live 2/3 of the way across the country. She has to go where the opportunities in her field that ARMY has available. That happens to be the East Coast. I hope I see her sooner than 4 years from now!
