Our celebration is over; the family has left, and the boys are all fast asleep.
It was a wonderful Christmas this year. We got to meet Louisa, who is a beautifully mellow baby. Ashton and Leo were perfect companions; they really 'got' each other this year, and Ash is truly missing his cousin already. Grandpa, Mimi, Uncle Brad, Aunt Sandy, Suepy, Cousin Jesse and Kelly all visited this year as well, and they boys really enjoyed the full house. there was good food, good conversation, and just the joy of being together.
Tomorrow we will have a quiet day sorting through our spoils and then a whole week of vacation before the boys are back to school. I am looking forward to playing with the boys this coming week, they received so many gifts that we can use together. Mason's microscope, Ashton's tinker toys and Blake's camera are all on the list of things I want to play with, whether they join me or not!
**I just found out that you can pre-order 'Aunt' Arika's book, In the Land of Invented Languages: Esperanto Rock Stars, Klingon Poets, Loglan Lovers, and the Mad Dreamers Who Tried to Build A Perfect Language on Amazon. I did, and you should, too!
