THURSDAY

We're waiting for a call from Mike to say that he is back in America and to tell us when he is coming home for sure. There is simply no way the little ones are going to be able to focus on the Civil Rights Movement today. I set them the task of cleaning their rooms. I'm not fretting my to do list any longer, it really is not going to matter to Mike if I have the garage, the yard and the van clean. He's not going to be terribly upset if the cheesecake doesn't arrive until next week. He won't be upset that I didn't get all the fix it jobs done - he'll know he's needed...dreadfully...around here.

In the midst of cleaning I found Arielle crying in her room. She was feeling what I was feeling, "The girls should be here." It was one of those "ahhhh" moments when Stacia wandered in and gave Arielle a big hug. Of course, by the time I got the camera she was done patting and was brining the hug thing to a close. LOL
Our plan is to work until lunch. Have lunch and then go spend an hour in the park with Tricia and her girls. We need a diversion.

Oh, gosh, De'Etta, I knew it was soon, but not this soon! How wonderfully, wonderful! I'm so excited for you all!

Prayers for ontime flights and smooth travels for you all!

Well, I for one would be torn up about the cheesecake-not-being-ready deal.

I must be feeling emotional today because I wanted to cry at almost all of these posts.

So excited for your family, De'Etta. Wish the girls could be there too.
