Awsome Visit
Last week my sister, her husband and beautiful baby boy Jack came up for a visit. We had such an awsome time. My brother and his wonderful girlfiend were also out for a visit from the city. I can't explain how close my family is, but it suffices to say that my siblings are my best friends, and I look forward to seeing them above anyone else. We had only a short time to visit, and we tried to make the most of it. My daughter was supposed to have a horseshow that weekend and was so excited because my sister would be there to cheer her on.(It was cancelled due to bad weather) My daughter and her aunt have always had a close relationship. They are very alike in personality and share a special bond. It was a dissapointment that it was cancelled, but we had a great time anyway.
My son had a Lacrosse game that Sunday, and we were expecting Pop Pop to come. It made his day to look up in the stands and see not just Pop Pop, but everyone had come to see him play. Uncle Mike got some great photos and I know it meant alot to him to have uncle Mike watch, as he was a goalie when he played soccer, so he knows the pressure of this position. His team lost, but he played well.(9 saves)
I am amazed at how big Jack has gotten. He is no longer a little pink lump of love, but a real kid. He is quick to smile and always happy. He adores him mommy, and his eyes just light up when he sees her, or even hears her in another room. I am so proud of the mother that my sister is. She is a common sense, no nonsense, do whats best for your baby, protective mother bear when need be kind of mom, and as lucky as she feels to have Jack, he is equally lucky to have her.

Beth, Just also had to comment on the great weekend we all had together. If Sarah had been there then it would have been perfect. Seeing all of you together and the fun and caring that shows means so much. I know that when I'm gone our family will always remain close and support each other. Love ya, Mom
I just noticed you had updated, and was so touched by your post. How lucky I am to have such a sister, who by the way, has taught me plenty about being a mom! M and I agreed that this past visit was one of the best ever. We were just so sad to leave... Seeing you guys and your children (and my special C, who is such a beautiful young lady) fulfills and recharges me. I love you all, and am so happy for Jack, who is blessed to have such great aunts, uncles, grandparents and cousins. Can't wait to see you again in July!
Hello, Beth and the rest of the J-crew!
What lovely things you have to say of your family...it's refreshing to read such a postive post about family relations.
I wish I could've been there, even if only considered a surrogate sister / auntie to you all.
Glad you're feeling better!
love, sharon
