I knew I would be enjoying the peace and quiet while the boy is vacationing with his grandfather (my stepfather) but I wasn't quite prepared to miss him so much already. I left him on Friday afternoon. It is only Monday morning. Someone explain.
Mr. JuJu and I attended a wedding on Saturday. One of his assistants married a lovely girl and they had a lovely reception with lovely music and lovely cookies. I'm sure the alcohol was quite lovely as well, but I wouldn't know anything about that. I'm also sure that the people who could find a babysitter were having a lovely time being child-free, but again, I would know nothing about that either. We took the baby along and believe it or not, she was an angel. She ate and smiled and flirted and danced and made it to 10 pm before we had to head toward the crib. It was a nice evening. I missed my boy. I kept thinking how he would be a perfect age to take to a wedding. He'd behave at the table and have fun dancing and make me laugh. So, all was not complete, but still fun. I managed to fit into a size 6 dress in my closet, and that my friends, a wonderful evening doth make.
WOOT! A size 6! Now THAT is something to celebrate ... with, er, sparkling cider, perhaps! That picture of you 3 is beautiful - you are positively glowing!

Good for you and glad you had a good time. Not surprised the baby was an angel. She is a delightful little darling!

Glowing is the word, indeed! You look absolutely radiant, my dear. Maybe all I need to do is get pregnant, aaand _then_ I'll fit into a size 6 (ya think?).
Don't wax too romantically about what it might have been like to have your boy at the wedding. It could have been precious and sweet, but at your boy's age...well, it could just as well have gone the other way. Hm, then again, wax away -- I'll give him the benefit of the doubt!
