This evening as we were sitting down to dinner Julianna stopped and said, "we better wait for daddy". She's used to "waiting" for daddy, since he frequently gets home just a few moments before we sit down at the table. But, tonight he is out at late meetings, so I told Julianna, "well, daddy won't be home til late, so we are going to eat without him... you, mommy and Lydia".
She glanced up with a serious look on her face and said, "when daddy gets home, he is going to be GLAAAAD to see me"!
In other news, Julianna and I took the bus back to the post office this morning. I took my 15 newly-written postcards and the envelope that I was unable to mail the last time I was there. [you can get more details about that craziness in my previous post.]
Success? I did manage to mail 15 postcards. BUT, the envelope is still in my possession. Seems the "special" envelope I have to use is still unavailable (it's been almost two weeks since I was first told to "come back in a day or two" for the special envelope). The post office lady wanted me to leave a phone number so she could call me when they arrived. Things are not looking good for the envelope....

Isn't that a wonderful way for a little girl to know her father - that he is going to be so glaaad to see her when he gets home! A simple but pure example of how we should all know our Father's love. Love you and miss you, Mom/Grandmama
We hear that phrase A LOT around here too. Justin is usually out of the house for 12 or so hours. Caroline hears me say "when daddy gets home" so often I don't know if she will believe me much longer!
Love Julie
