busy day

Monday was a busy day. I spent the afternoon with Corey. We went to target, then got a changing table from my friend Vanessa, had lunch a then went to his house I I tried to set some stuff up for Sue and the baby. They come home today!
I then went to the hospital and got to hold the baby for an hour!

I loved holding him. Corey is the brother I am closet to. He is closest in age to me. We shared a room as kids. He was was the one who teased me most. I fought with most. But the one I hung out with most.
When I didn't make Celebration choir my sophomore year (I was bumped up in the summer) I saw Corey and started to cry and he gave me a hug. At school in front of people! Whe a boy in 6th grade was picking on me. He comfronted him at lunch time. He left me alone after that. When a boy made an inapropriate comment about me in high school inf ront of him. He punched him in the face. The boy didn't know Corey was my brother.
I have had 2 children and am a little more comfortable with babies now then I was 5 yrs ago. I know how it feels to be given this baby that you are in charge of. Not knowing how you are going to do it. I am thrilled that I have Corey and Sue so close. I would have been sad if I was still in California and missed this opportunity to spend time with them and to try to help them out.
This is a happy time in our family. I am glad to have a little part in it, even if it is only holding the baby while Sue gets a shower. I am happy to oblige!
I am a happy Aunt!
