A lot of you family-member out-of-towners are going to see Isabelle very soon. Mom-Mom Su-Su and Pop-Pop Bill are coming to Maryland this weekend. Uncle Don is coming to visit in November (Aunt Susan will hopefully be able to visit in December). And then for Thanksgiving, we're going to see Grandpa Siler, Abuela Carmen, Aunt Jessie, Uncle Luis, Aunt Tashi, and Cousin Nafet for a very nice long 12-day vacation!
Y'all in Maryland get to see Iz a little more often, but Ed & I had to sit back, take notice, and sigh in disbelief tonight at how old? mature? grown-up? all-of-the-above? our little Isabelle is becoming! Maybe it's the new big girl school? Maybe it's just the fact that she's turning four? Maybe it's because we've been watching baby videos of her lately which make my heart melt into puddles?
But you really do have to see her. And talk to her. She ain't the same kid you last interacted with. Call her sometime. She answers the house phone now (yea, really). And she's just all of a sudden a big kid. I can't put it into words and it's driving us crazy.
Anyway, sorry, I'm just being nostalgic. My little brother and my sister-in-law are about to have a baby next month and they will be embarking on a great journey. A scary journey. But so worth the trip.
