Teddy, Tina and Trina are Sanj’s first cousins. \u00a0Their dads are brothers. Sanj lived with their family while he was going to school at George Washington in Maryland. \u00a0I met them probably 26 + years ago. \u00a0They were young \u2026 (well, in reality, so was I). \u00a0From that first day of meeting them, our lives have been intertwined\u2026 by friendship and marriage. \u00a0We love each other deeply. \u00a0And we love each other spouses too. Our children love their aunties and uncles and their children. \u00a0It feels like Christmas whenever we are together.<\/p>\n

Teddy and family are here visiting. \u00a0They have two little girls and a boy just for Josh. \u00a0Oh my goodness\u2026. I see now why we didn’t get a daughter. \u00a0Sanj would be a goner. \u00a0Little Rachel, went to her Uncle Sanj ( who was not turning off the game so we could watch Frozen) and asked, “Could you please turn this off and put Frozen on, Uncle?\u00a0<\/em>Wow! \u00a0Never has Sanj turned the game off that quickly!!! \u00a0Loved it! \u00a0These little ones have some power<\/em>!!!<\/p>\n

Yesterday we all went skiing. \u00a0This was the little ones the first time. \u00a0After the lesson, they rocked!!! Impressive! \u00a0It was cold but no one seemed to feel it\u2026 unless you weren’t skiing. \u00a0Now I understand why you learning skiing when you are a wee one\u2026 there isn’t far too fall!!!<\/p>\n

Today the younger boys played hooky from school and went to TO to the new aquarium with Uncle Teddy and Auntie Yeka. \u00a0They are always so thoughtful of the boys. \u00a0Tomorrow after school, they are planning something with the older boys. \u00a0So thoughtful.<\/p>\n

I am home today to attack the laundry! \u00a0I’m not sure who is attacking whom, but I am hoping to win the battle!!! \u00a0It’s another busy week. \u00a0Sanj is away W-Sunday at a conference in Fl. \u00a0Yah, rough life. \u00a0Josh’s birthday is this Thursday\u2026 he is turning 9 years old!!! \u00a0And he has high expectations\u2026 Oye! \u00a0Then there’s a catering gig I have Friday night for a 100 people\u2026 and of course, it’s just Murphy’s Law that Sanj is away. (Sigh). \u00a0It’s all good. \u00a0Next Saturday I plan on a day with the boys just doing something fun. \u00a0But I have to get through this week.<\/p>\n

\"1797541_10152666950785828_1212138223_n\"<\/a>I am sitting at my desk writing and this picture is right in front of me. \u00a0OMG!!! I love this picture! \u00a0This moment is engraved my mind!!! \u00a0We were renting a little house in Peterborough, I had 4 babies\u2026 \u00a0This was in the playroom and attached was this little bathroom. \u00a0This is my Max\u2026 \u00a0Despite that this room had more toys then Toys R Us\u2026 all over the floor, Max found a new place to play. \u00a0The toliet. \u00a0This picture doesn’t’ show it but he ended up sitting in it. \u00a0Sanj was cracking up, taking the pic and then Max sits in it, dips his fingers in the water (I can’t even think if there was pee in it or not) and then proceeds to suck his FINGERS!!! \u00a0I’m screaming at Sanj to stop the picture taking and laughing and get him out!!! \u00a0I ended up grabbing Max by the scruff of his shirt, all the while he is grinning\u2026. lol \u00a0OMG. \u00a0Obviously it didn’t hurt him too much.<\/p>\n

Isn’t he such a cutie!!! He was such a happy delightful baby. \u00a0How I love my boys! Do they drive me crazy? \u00a0Yup! \u00a0And yet\u2026 it’s these moments that \u2026 Sigh. \u00a0Babyhood went too fast. Teen years, seemingly quite s\u2026.l\u2026\u2026o\u2026.w\u2026.<\/p>\n
