i absolutely love it. he has been running around the house playing and hiding and scaring the kids and i haven't had one child bother me. maybe i should invite him to move in. his two kittens would miss him too much. and i'm guessing his wife would too. so, we'll send him back home on saturday and i'll resume my position as mom.when i married chris, his family was a wonderful addition in my life. they were/are fun and happy and good. they made good conversation and made us happy. i really enjoyed brian. brian was still in high school. brian played the drums. brian stayed up very late. brian always had something to say. brian made me laugh.
when i got pregnant with ceily, chris had just graduated from school. we had a job waiting in VA and we moved into his childhood home for a bit. brian lived there too. brian loved to feel ceily moving around inside my belly. he would go and get me SLURPEES from 7-11 so the little one would start to bounce. then he had to move to texas and speak spanish for two years and missed the birth of ceily and her first 2 years. we sent lots of pictures and ceily greeted him as he walked off the plane returning home.
since then, uncle brian has been the best uncle brian in the world. the children love him. he plays with them. he chases them. he converses with them. he loves them.
today is now monday. brian has been gone since saturday night. noah fell asleep in the car as we dropped brian at the airport and woke up on sunday, asking where uncle brian was. he was sad he had missed his departure. we all miss him.
now that brian is a grown up and married, he has another family to entertain. we are all very happy and exicted that this year, he get's to eat thanksgiving dinner with us. it's always a little bit more fun with him around and i like it a lot because at times my children like him better than me. thanks for coming and hanging out and making us laugh. see you in a few days!
