So hubby worked from home yesterday and around 2:30 we headed over to my parents once again. This time the whole fam damily would be together. My little sister and her hubby were still there but my older sister joined us with her kids (and oh yeah, her boyfriend Jabba was there too.)
It was a great time. The kids played nicely (although there was an eye poking with my son and my niece but she ended up being fine and it was an accident.) A tear or two was shed by me when I hugged my little sis thinking about how far she will be from me from now on. *sniffle* All she said was, "Don't cry, Ang." I think it was because she was trying to not cry.
So the day after Christmas was wonderful. My daughter was better and playing like normal and I got to visit with family again. I'm feeling blessed.
It's back to the routine with hubby at work, the house a mess and the kids needing things. The one thing I could do without is my son throwing a hissy fit over wanting hot chocolate with breakfast. It's a treat not a breakfast beverage. *sigh* But I musn't yell, I'm having trouble with my voice andI don't want surgery on my vocal cords again. So no yelling today. LOL.

My sisters both live in different states than me... and I miss them. It sucks... but you manage. I'm sorry she's moving Angel.
I live 2000 miles from most of my family so I know what it is like. And why isn't hot cocoa a breakfast drink?
Mmmm.
Cocoa.
I'm happy that she and her husband got some great jobs and my sister has always wanted to live near the beach. Flights to and from Tampa to the burg aren't as bad as some so I hope to see each other here and there as often as we can swing it. She's renting for the next 3 months in a gorgeous gated golf course community (that, btw, was hit by tornados Christmas morning but I believe their house was spared.) Before the 3 months is up they will have found a house to buy. She's so excited. I'm happy for them, how could I not be.
It's just that up until 3 years ago we saw each other all the time. My sister and her now ex-husband and my nieces, my younger sister and her then boyfriend (now hubby.) Then my older sister walked away from her husband and kids and everything changed. My little sister and I got closer. Now she's leaving. For the past 4 years she has lived in Ohio and me here in PA so different states isn't new but there was never states between us. I know we'll manage but it does suck.
Now she makes us want to move. LOL. Charlotte NC is looking rather inviting. hee hee.
FL: Hot cocoa is loaded with too much sugar and he's as skinny as a rail. I'd prefer him to drink milk. I probably might have considered it except he demanded it. Out of principal alone for how he acted it was ruled out. He broke down and accepted that what mommy says goes. LOL.
Yes, Lioux, mmmmmm cocoa. :D
been there done that Angel
Finished last.... perhaps I'm having a strawberry blonde moment but.. been there done what?
