we're all together now...missy and bill's four children. we spent the day together doing our last minute shopping and running errands.

we ended the evening with a dance party with missy. she hasn't completely mastered walking yet...but she loves to dance. she heard music on the credits of a special we were watching and she just started dancing. so we all started dancing. (the beast even tried to get in on it.) then missy started clapping, so we all started clapping. then she started giving us all high fives. she was squealing with delight.

(it is particularly delightful when she squeals because she smiles a huge smile and you can see that she only has four teeth...two on the top and two on the bottom.)

i thought to myself, "i wonder if they knew that even after they were gone, we would all make sure we were together."

tonight, i am thinking about mummy's sisters and her brother. i know they are missing her, too.

tonight i am feeling very lucky that my sisters and my brother are under this roof with me.
