Today, we saw Mom off at the San Antonio Airport. It was the end of a nine day, excitement and love-filled visit. We haven't seen her since October of '07, so you can imagine how much the kids have grown since the last time. They all had oodles of fun, from teaching her how to play the Wii (and beating her! Poor Mom) to playing horse (basketball) to eating, walking, wine tasting, margaritas and mariachis. We even went for a little dancing one evening at an old dance hall. We took lots of pictures (a challenge getting Danny Jr to sit still for that many pics! HA!) and never was there a dull moment.
The car ride home, apres drop-off, was very sad, indeed. Olivia gazed out the window, the wind blowing her hair and her tears across her face. Sophia sat as quiet as could be, wiping away the tears as they came. I have never seen Danny Jr show such deep emotion. Tears streamed down all three of their faces (I forced myself to hold it together for their sakes). After about 10 minutes, D broke into a very mournful wail which the girls fed off of, turning into three mournful wails. If it wasn't so sad it would have been funny.
Now everyone is exhausted - physically and mentally. So with that, I'll say good night. More pics tomorrow.
Love to you!
