I may be busy.......

As I write this, my niece, her husband and grand nephew are flying to Brazil. They will be gone for over two weeks. The trip is to go back to Bruce's childhood home, in the Amazon, for a reunion. They will be able to share things with each other about a country that Bruce is greatly attached to and meet people that are like family to him. In the meantime, I will be the loving "interim mommy" for my grandniece. She is one year old and a real doll baby! That's her in the middle of the picture! :)) Isn't she adorable and cuddly!! Here is Claire enjoying her first chocolate cupcake on her first birthday! I am on Claire's left and my niece on the right.
Mommy, daddy and brother will return soon! During these two weeks life will be a little different and we will enjoy every moment!! My house has been transformed back to having lots of baby paraphernalia scattered around and my granddaughter will enjoy her visits even more with Claire for a playmate!!
