Betsy and I drove from Omaha to Sioux Falls, SD to meet Jane and Emma. It had been a long time since Betsy had seen either Jane OR Emma so the reunion was fabulous.

Betsy loves her only niece. She had a good time holding and kissing her. She told her over and over that Betsy is Emma's favorite aunt. (Editor's note: It wasn't until last night that when I would see my nephews, Scott, Mike, and Jeremy that I thought that I was their ONLY aunt. I remember being quite put out when I realized I WASN'T their ONLY aunt.)

Betsy tried to be very helpful and even changed Emma's diapers. It has been a long time changing diapers because the diaper wasn't placed in the right place and so...when NANA when to pick Miss Emma up out of the car seat...Nana got a surprise...all over.... :-) We had a good time teasing Auntie Betsy, Emma and I did. She did ask that Auntie not change her diaper again without specific lessons...Emma was placed in an embarrassing situation for a moment.

Silly Aunt Betsy carries a magnificent bag. She has EVERYTHING in there!!! She is a regular Mary Poppins. She can find and fit anything in there...

Nana was told...please don't feed my child anything.

Auntie Betsy said...Want a Lemon, Emma.

Emma said...Ewuuuuuuu! That is a shocker.

Auntie Betsy said...Want a pickle.

Emma said: hmmmm. I don't know if I like it or not.

I came home with Emma and Jane. Emma is a fabulous little traveler but she was ready for her own house. Before her quick bath before bed...she couldn't stop jumping...with help. What a fun little girl.

As I look at my girls and their children, I am so proud of them. They are good moms. They have beautiful children. And if you don't agree...it's okay...because...well, Nana knows the truth.

Can't wait for the fun today!!!!
