I wish Katie read here...I want to give her a thumbs up. My son David's 5 little and kids and Jessica are visiting their other grandmother in Lake Charles LA. Katie is driving from Austin to meet them in Galveston for a day at the beach and a spend the night. Then she is bringing back the two oldest boys Sam 10 and Max 9 and possibly 5 yr old Tabitha for a few days in Austin. Then driving all of them back to Lake Charles. She just emailed me that she is picking up Emily on Saturday to spend the weekend with her so she can see her nephews. She is sooo thoughtful (I admit I had not even thought of this possibility) and with her house full she is still doing it. Em will love it. She is a great Auntie Em.

Katie is a real-live hero-aunt, isn't she? And a great sister to boot  I'm sure they'll all have a great time visiting - it's the best of family, isn't it - spending time together |

Yes I am very jealous except we will be going before long to North Carolina to visit the 5 little ones ourselves. Emily lives almost 30 miles from Katie now and sometimes a ton of traffic getting there so its not the easiest task to pick her up. I am almost embarassed that it took her sister to come up with this idea rather than me...but as I said...mighty proud of her for doing it. We are certainly blessed that Emily's sibs are as interested and concerned about her as Ed and I are. I think enabling Emily to live outside a relatives home has been the key factor so no one assumes all the responsibility.
