I'm an AUNT

Congratulate me.

If all goes well, as of this minute I'll be a new aunt again.

My niece will have "delivered" two girls, given to her by the Grace of God and the State of Indiana. These two sisters are now ours.

Thank you God. Thank you, State of Indiana. Thank you New Mom and Dad.   Congrats Grandma and Grandpa!

Losing My Husband

We've been married 18 years.

And yet, in one short weekend he fell for another girl.

Oh, it was so obvious from the moment he saw her. No one could mistake that look.

She's used to wrapping men around her little finger. At first she tried to play hard to get. And she even started out getting me to participate in her little scheme of capturing my husband's heart.

She whispers in my ear, "Tell Michael I'm afraid of vacuum cleaners."

I was confused, there was no Michael (yet) in the house. I said, "Who's Michael?" She points her tiny fingers at Bob.

I said, "That's not Michael, that's your new Uncle Bobby."

She whispers again,, "Tell Uncle Bobby I'm afraid of vacuum cleaners." I told him, even though there were no vacuum cleaners in sight and I'm not sure why that tidbit was important.

Yes, he fell in love, actually with two girls. As did I.

I mean, do you know anyone who couldn't fall in love with this smile?

Or these eyes?

Yeah, I lost my husband this weekend. Two sweet precious girls stole his heart away while I was distracted with them stealing mine.
