Cousin Time

Well, we are empty-nesters right now...well, it feels like it.

We've been enjoying company for several days, and the leaving of relatives has left one heart in particular very sad. Thus, we are at the library right now filling a void by having Cherish play with other children. As I type, I am watching Cherish play with a new friend.

We were blessed to have my cousin, her daughter (Cierra), and my mom here for a visit. Cierra and Cherish hadn't seen each other in a year, and they made up for lost time. They enjoyed playing dolls, jumping on the trampoline, swimming, doing each other hair and nails, reading, and enjoying "slumber parties".

"Best Buddies for Life"

(as they were chanting their last night sleeping together):

 "Hair Salon" is serious business:

 Cierra is 11. Cherish is 4.

 Cherish just learned how to put rubber bands in.

 Cierra is SO PATIENT and KIND!!!!!

 WOW! Good job, Cherish! =)

We are counting down the days until we are together again--in July! Yay!
