I'm laying under a chandelier in one of the guest rooms at my dad's house...which is pretty much astounding...the attention to detail between the lighting and crown moulding and fabrics is quite something...and their library really does have floor to ceiling bookcases with a rolling ladder.
Enough about the house though, much more importantly I met my sister today...she's about two and a half years old now and it's pretty surreal. I was dreading meeting her since her birth was tied in so much with our infertility and I admit I took a minute out in my dad's backyard to let the tears hit my cheeks instead of trying to hold them in my eyes...and after I got that over with I realized she's adorable. She warmed up quickly to Caleb and Mac and even mentioned once that Peggy and I are her "sissies" even though the poor girl is trying to take in all five of us and who the heck we are. On my way here I had a hard time dealing with the fact she was going to be real now...that I was going to actually know her...and now I just hope I can make an impression in the next couple of days so she might be able to know me.
So I'm going to go to sleep under the candelier...I have to be rested for tomorrow to give my dad his birthday gift from me...for the first time I'm going to go with him on his daily jog...poor guy is going to have to put up with my pathetic fifteen minute mile. :)
