Reunion



It was funny to see how the girls acted toward eachother last night when Gillian got home from being with Nonni and Grandaddy for 11 long days. Gillian was very patient and sweet with Addie and Addie didn't want Gillian to leave her sight for a second. Then in the tub Gillian apologized for being "mean to Addie all these years." There was much gentle stroking of faces and kisses and hugs and talking about how much they love eachother. Then Gillian put Addie's bandaids on her booboos and brushed her hair for me. And made a little bed on the floor and read Addie's bedtime stories. Sean and I just sat on the couch and watched their sweet, snuggly reunion.

That is sooo sweet! For some reason this made me think of something Mark Twain would write- one week away at Grandma's house and everyone loves each other.. but the next morning? It just lends itself to satire almost. :) Entirely precious and ALMOST makes me want another.. ALMOST.

That's right! Today has been an utter fail-nonstop fighting. We had to leave the playground early because of the pushing and hitting, but it was nice last night! ;-)
