Sisters & Cousins

My sister Beth drove down from Virginia with 2 1/2-month-old Ari to spend the weekend with us and represent my family at Teresa's Baptism on Sunday. We enjoyed seeing each others' girls and "talking mommy." Beth inspired me with her patient self-sacrifice, especially when it came to nursing. Ari was rather fussy during her stay with us, asking to be fed often. Beth lovingly obliged and never complained. I have a lot to learn from her!

Cute pix, Frances.

Eric's sister had a baby girl last weekend (22nd) and Lord willing, we'll meet our daughter in a couple weeks. So it will be fun for us to have cousins the same age, too!

I miss her so much already... :(
