Elizabeth was here.

Elizabeth left today after being here since AB's birthday party. She told me the other day that "the only reason I'm here is so I maks a blog appearance." And here I was thinking it was because I am her most favorite sister in the whole wide entire universe and she can't live a day without me.  

She was a big help. She swept the floor, entertained the baby, loaded the dishwasher and took a flattering photo of me climbing through the kitchen window when I was trying to prove that I can be a cool mom. I'd post the picture but 80% of it is my backside and frankly that's not the type of blog I operate around here.

Her 21st birthday is next month (HOW CAN THAT BE) so we had a little party for her yesterday. She doesn't like real cake so I made her a fruit cake instead. I know it looks like three candles for a third birthday but it's supposed to be 2 big space 1. I am constantly explaining my cakes.

It was a sad time when she left. As she pulled away AB went to the window and starting waving and saying, "Bye bye bye bye!"



I'm sure she'll be back soon. She can't live out of the blog limelight for long.
