My mama and sister are in DRC right now to bring my new nephew home! I miss them!
My in-laws flew back to Portland on Wednesday. I miss them!
I have so much to be thankful for, though! How awesome is it that I have family that I love, and like, enough to actually miss?!? ;-)
My sister and my mom are bringing home a new family member! Such an amazing blessing! I can't wait until I can share his picture here. He's such a beautiful, happy, smiley little boy. I really can't wait for them to get home, though. These next few weeks are going to go by so slowly...although I'm sure more for them than for me!
I don't know when we'll get to see Gram and Grandpa from Oregon again. Maybe after Christmas, maybe next spring. It's hard being so far away from Pete's family. I love them all dearly.
It's kind of a no-win situation. We live here, close to my family, but far from Pete's. Or we live there, close to Pete's family, but far from mine. Perhaps we should move to Texas and let them all just come visit us!
The kids have so much fun with Gram and Grandpa!
Life is a bit of a letdown when they go home, and they tend to drive
their mama a little bit crazy for a week or two after! It's okay though,
it's worth it!
