This morning Corie and her two girls left for home, and Susannah left for a week at 5th grade camp. I've spent the morning wandering around in my empty house, mournfully picking up Polly Pocket shoes, stowing the pack-and-play, putting away baby toys, and wondering what I'm going to do with myself now that the only other female here is Sadie.
Who will watch Friends with me? Who will watch American Idol? Who will help make cookies?
Who will hide in my cupboard with the canned goods?
Who will drop crumbs on the floor for the doggie?
Maybe once I recover I'll catch up on my journal, and see if I can remember where I left off in "World Without End"...
The good news is that my sons are all here. And the men in my family couldn't be more delighted at the prospect of another generation of Denver Bronco fans.

I was glad to be in your house! We'll miss you, too. When you come down to visit me, we can watch Friends again!
I hope you managed to find something to distract you from flying solo. I love the tiny little Broncos shoes, by the way.
What a beautiful family you have! I read back to the post where your daughter-in-law's very pregnant pics are. I rejoice with you in your new baby, and yes, there is nothing like that new-baby smell. I remember just smelling and smelling my babies; it was something almost primeval--intoxicating! Anyway, just wanted to say hello.
